SNPA Clone

This is an extract version of a SNPA Clone on the Northern Brewer forum. The original recipe was developed in cooperation with the brewmaster from SN, who wrote the grain bill and hop schedule.

To accomodate extract brewers (and others), fractional amounts have been rounded up/down...but staying well within Style and Published parameters for SNPA (from their website).

Ferment with WLP-001, Wyeast 1056, or Safeale US-56 (your choice).

Water:	This recipe is for a 3-gallon boil (stovetop).
Grain:	1 lb. American crystal 60L
Steep:	There are two options for steeping: (1) Put the grainbag in cold water and slowly heat to 170F (2) Heat sufficient water to cover the grainbag to 160F (+/- 10F) and steep for 30 mins. Remove and drain the grainbag. Bring the wort to a boil.
Boil:	60 minutes	SG 1.079	3 gallons
	6 lb. Light malt extract
	The last addition of Cascade occurs at flameout. No dry-hopping. Add 2 oz of Cascade at the end of the boil, and leave until cool enough to transfer to the primary.

Yeast:	The yeast should be one of White Labs WLP-001, Wyeast 1056, or Safeale US-56 (dry).
Log:	Primary: until Krausen falls. Secondary: until three daily SG readings are identical. Bottle/Keg: as long as you can stand to wait.
Carbonation:	2.5 volumes	Keg: 30.0 psi @ 72°F Corn Sugar: 4.54 oz. for 5 gallons @ 72°F
	Mini-Keg/Tap-A-Draft: 1/3 cup corn sugar in 8 oz water, boiled and cooled.
Tasting:	It tastes like SNPA -- it's a clone designed with the help of SN's brewmaster, modified slightly to accomodate extract brewers.
