This all-grain recipe kit layers \u003cstrong\u003eSimcoe, Columbus, Cascade, Amarillo®, and Centennial\u003c\/strong\u003e for grapefruit, resin, orange peel, floral citrus, and old-school American hop bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a soft, hazy, low-bitterness IPA. Coast Is Clear is intentionally crisp, assertive, and hop-saturated, with an estimated bitterness over 90 IBU and a clean US-05 fermentation profile that keeps the hops in focus. If you miss the clear, bitter, aromatic West Coast IPAs that defined the style before everything went hazy, this kit is designed to scratch that itch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes full retail hop packs where needed, so the instructions call out exactly what to weigh for each addition and what to reserve. That gives you the right recipe balance while leaving useful extra hops for future dry hops, starter batches, or recipe adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompanion version:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the all-grain version of Coast Is Clear West Coast IPA.

Coast Is Clear uses Columbus for firm bitterness and structure, Simcoe for pine and resin, Cascade and Centennial for classic grapefruit-citrus character, and Amarillo® for orange and floral brightness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all-grain version uses a straightforward base of Briess Brewers Malt with Caramel 40L and Carapils® for light color, foam support, and just enough malt backbone for the hop load. Mash low-to-mid 150s°F for a dry, drinkable finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFermentation Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a clean, sanitized fermenter with enough headspace. Pitch SafAle US-05 into well-aerated wort around 64–68°F and hold fermentation in the mid-to-upper 60s°F. Dry hop only after primary activity has slowed, keep contact time short, avoid oxygen pickup, and package after gravity is stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetailed Kit Contents\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBriess Brewers Malt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 Ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBriess Caramel 40L Malt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBriess Carapils® Dextrin Malt:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSimcoe Hops:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 Ounces supplied; use 2.75 Ounces total and reserve the remainder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColumbus Hops:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 Ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCascade Hops:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 Ounces supplied; use 1.5 Ounces total and reserve the remainder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmarillo® Hops:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Ounce supplied; use 0.5 Ounce and reserve the remainder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentennial Hops:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Ounce supplied; use 0.5 Ounce and reserve the remainder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFermentis SafAle US-05 American Ale Dry Yeast:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Packet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecipe and Measuring Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis draft is based on the public AHA\/Zymurgy Green Flash West Coast IPA-inspired formulation by Amahl Turczyn.
