Amarillo A.P.A

This is an American Pale Ale recipe with Amarillo hops. Also try this with Cascade hops or a mix. I like to carbonate this one quite high and serve chilled like a larger, ideal for a hot summers day in the garden.
You can buy this as an extract kit from BrewUk.

Haven't quite perfected the chill haze issues I have....working on this !

Lots of grapefruit flavour in this one, went crazy on the aroma hop steep this time around..reduce the late hop addition if you like to 25 g.

Prince Of Orange - Full Mash Recipe

The key to this recipe is to get a good fruity medium/full body and good balance between the sweetness and the bitterness.

Its important to use the Danstar Windsor yeast as you want to have moderate attenuation, which will leave a relatively high final gravity.

The second time I brewed this I couldn't get Windsor so used Safale S-04 and it was no way near as good (watery) . The orange peel smells amazing in the fermenter but does dissipate during fermentation and just gives a subtle flavour in the final beer.

I think I used M&S Spanish oranges the first time and they seemed better than the cheaper ones I bought second time around. Go for a good mature orange, perhaps buy them the week before and let them ripen up more.
