Hi,
Just getting into brewing and playing around with recipes etc making small 7.5l batches. I've read a lot about beers with higher hop contents having oxidation issues like NEIPAs, I'm just wondering at what level of hops to I need to worry about this? I'm currently mashing ready for a Mosaic IPA similar to @Dgallo 's single hop recipe so works out at 60g of hops in a 7.5l batch - is this a lot? Or is it more about when you add them that causes issues? The profile is 5g @ 60, 5g @ 10, 10g @ 0, 20g steep @ 75C for 30 mins, 20g dry hop.
I bottle and dont have the ability to do close transfer - I have previously gone from primary to bottling bucket with priming solution then bottle with a stick.
