New Recipe... Opinions Please

[Kelly]

I went to the LHBS today and got an extract kit for an IPA. I'm going to personalize it a bit (because I cant leave things alone). Can you guys tell me what I should end up with?

6.6 lbs Light LME
1 lb Crystal Malt
.5 lb Victory Malt
16 oz. Light DME (by volume)
24 oz. Clover Honey
2 oz. Northern Brewer Pellets
1 oz. Cascade Pellets
1oz. Cascade Pellets (addition)

I have the extra oz. of Cascade and it was suggested to dry hop in the secondary. I'm thinking that if I dry hop in the primary, it will allow the beer to clear a bit in the secondary and leave less residue. I'm also just thinking about adding one oz. with the Northern Brewer and then the last oz. for finishing.

Anyway, I'm thinking that I'll get a pretty dry, hoppy IPA. I entered the ingredients into BeerSmith and got this.



Let me know what you guys think. I should be starting it tomorrow at about noon.

That first image is with an ounce of cascade being dry hopped.

This one is with the same ounce boiled for the last minute.
