Go On, be insanely brave, and swap the FWH and the 15 minute additions around (thats 7.7 IBU from the FWH, and 28.4IBU from the 15 minute. Drop the 5 minute addition (move it to the steep)
Go on
I dare you
You not chicken are you ?

Ok, I'm thinking of swapping the hop schedule to this:
50.00 gm First Gold [8.00 %] (60 min) (First Wort Hop) Hops 19.7 IBU
100.00gm First Gold [8.00 %] (15 min) Hops 19.7 IBU
80.00 gm First Gold [8.00 %] (0 min) (Aroma Hop-Steep 80 degrees 15 mins)
The plan is to try to get equal IBU's from the FWH and the 15 min additions giving a total of around 40 IBU, also moved the 5 mins additions and added them to the 80 degree steep hops.
Has anyone done anything similar to this and if so, what was the outcome?
IBU's calculated with Beersmith - Tinseth

Sounds like a plan Wez, not tried to do that with fwh before but I would be interested in the results. Good luck with it
