IPA Help

[know1]

I've got some ideas of a bold IPA floating around and I'm looking for some feedback.

I haven't put anything into software yet but here's what I'm thinking along the line of:

5gal
Target ABV: 7-8%
Target IBU: ~80

85% Superior Pale Malt
10% Munich
5% special Aromatic

Mash ~151F

For hops I've got Citra, Amarillo, Centennial, (also willamette but thinking no for an IPA)
Any suggestions on what to use when?

I'm thinking Citra/Centennial bittering Citra/Amarillo finishing and citra/amarillo dry hopping
(I'll play with the quantity numbers in beersmith tonight)

I'll probably just pitch a US-05 yeast and is NG the easiest spot to get Gypsum?

I'd use all centennial bittering, just because I think Citra is more valuable at the end, and supply is tight. Your hop plan sounds good so far. NG has the gypsum at some locations, so call first.

ah good call, that makes sense. Thanks!

I can drop by with some on the weekend if you can't find any.

Got some gypsum at NG quinpool the other day. Just went in and asked, they had a container there, got a little baggie weighed out from it. plan to try some water adjustments with my next hoppy beer.

That's almost $20/kg. I should be selling the stuff, not giving it away!
