Beer Style: India Pale Ale 
Recipe Type: all-grain
Yield: 4.5 gallons

Description:

A new attempt at a variant of my NEIIPA recipe which turned out well, using corn sugar to increase gravity and slightly decrease sweetness. This beer makes use of newer American hops to provide a nice soft mouthfeel with orange, guava, peach,a bit of berry, some melon, and a decent amount of dankness. This beer is very drinkable, especially about a month after being brewed.

Procedure:

Mash in at 175 deg F adding 18 quarts of 192 deg water, add HTL enzyme, and hold for 60 minutes
Add 11.5 quarts of chilled to 61 deg F to drop to 130 deg F, SEBflo TL & AMG-300L, and hold for 60 minutes (adjust this step temp/duration per the enzymes you use)
Recirculate and sparge to collect 6.5 gallons of wort
Boil down to 4.75 gallons of wort, adding hop and sugar additions per ingredient timing
Immediately after boil is complete cool to just under 180 deg F
Add whirlpool hops and recirculate for 45 minutes
After whirlpool, chill to less to than 70 deg F
Pitch yeast and dry hop for primary fermentation, aerate for 90 seconds
Ferment starting at 62 deg F and, after the first four days (or when fermentation slows), allow it to warm to ~70 deg F as fermentation slows
After 7 days, transfer on top of secondary dry hop and hold for another 7 days
Transfer to final vessel
Note: Be careful not to oxidize the beer during any post-primary fermentation transfer!
