Seymour Citra Gold
Re: Seymour Citra Gold
I've just weighed out my grains for tomorrow's brew, which is a kinda Citra Gold.
I'm using all Citra (with a couple of extra additions) and in the spirit of the original it's a bit of a user upper, so has a little caramalt added, and a bit more MO than planned to finish off the sack.
Hopefully it will still turn out well!

Re: Seymour Citra Gold
quick question regarding the peel. Im going to use a half grapefuit and half orange and just peel the entire skin off and chuck it into the boil. is this acceptable?

Re: Seymour Citra Gold
I would just use the zest myself - the coloured part of the skin. The white pith underneath it is just bitter and won't add anything good.
Ingredients: Water, Barley, Hops, Yeast, Seaweed, Blood, Sweat, The swim bladder of a sturgeon, My enemies tears, Scenes of mild peril, An otter's handbag and Riboflavin.
Re: Seymour Citra Gold
Brewed it earlier today, used the zest from one orange and half a red grapefruit. I am really looking forward to this one, it should be ready for the final of the euros and my caravan holiday!!

I checked on the fv this morning in the fridge and this smells amazing. Can't wait to get in about it.

Re: Seymour Citra Gold
Sorry for the delay. I agree, yes. This is a very adaptable recipe, a good starting point for pretty much any hop trial.Goulders wrote:You can use any hop you like. It would no doubt taste great with cascaderobbarwell wrote:Due to the lack of Citra available..could this be brewed with Cascade
