With our upcoming club brew project over at BRC, I wanted to start a post to share what we all plan to do with the wort we take away from the day. My plan is to take the wort, add DME to bring it up to about 1.070 OG, and heat it up to 170 to do a hop stand with simcoe and citra, and dry hop with simcoe, citra and el dorado. I'll ferment with London Fog dry yeast, hoping I end up with a hazy IPA but also sort of winging it.
Here's the recipe, starting with as close an approximation of the wort and then my additions.

Re: Club Brew project
Very cool Ro... I've never used that yeast, but it sounds like a great fit for a juicy hazy IPA!
I'm not sure what I will do with my wort yet. I'm tempted to do a small volume steep, then boil with more hops. I've never done a Cali Common, but that may be the direction I go. OR, I may just pitch some 'fun' yeast and take it experimental with some post fementation adds... Yarrow, mugwort, sage...

Re: Club Brew project
Those all sound like great options!
Some funky Belgian yeast or even that "frankenyeast" from white labs might be a fun experiment.
