I like the idea of doing a few 1 or 2 gallon single hop brew to understand the taste differences.
Will probably use Grahams beer engine and try and get the bitterness a close as possible for each brew.
Anyone done this before? Is it worthwhile?
Small single hop brews
Re: Small single hop brews
Are you going to do a large mash, then multiple boils? Just wondering how many variable you are trying to eliminate. I'm quite interested in results from experiments like that but each time I think about doing one I just end up with a regular brew day - poor self-discipline 

I brew therefore I ... I .... forget
Re: Small single hop brews
I don't think I'd be able to do that as I don't have anywhere to boil more than 1 brew at a time.vacant wrote:Are you going to do a large mash, then multiple boils?

I'd have to just do mini-mashes a little like Chris has mentioned but using my current 10g setup.
Its a plan anyway.
