It's getting to be rare around here that FWH isn't in the mix. Sometimes it's the only addition. Obviously, I'm a fan.I made a beer that is now on tap where I added about 7.2 AAU of Noble hops (Tettnanger and Hallertau Mitt, IIRC) as FWH. Then I boiled the wort as usual without adding any additional hops until the last minute where I threw in more Tettnanger. Damn, what a nice character that adds. There is plenty of bitterness and hop character in this beer (for my tastebuds anyway) and I really like the hop profile on it. Delicious! Cheers.

I used to do a lot of it but for some reason sort of got away from it. I've done two batches recently that I FWH'ed and then there's the community brew coming up that utilizes FWH and hopbursting. And those two techniques go together hand-in-glove.It's getting to be rare around here that FWH isn't in the mix. Sometimes it's the only addition. Obviously, I'm a fan.

Sometimes even later than that. I've seen recipes that did FWH and then flameout and that was it.From what I have noticed about the new sort of "generation" of IPAs that have been all the rage lately, a lot of the formulations seem to be that you add your FWH addition and then no more hops until at least 20 min left in the boil.

Another thing I read in "How to Brew" (I think) was that it should only be done with low AA hops, yet all these IPAs are using hops with >10% AA hops for FWH and they taste absolutely delicious. Columbus is one of my favorites for this.From what I have noticed about the new sort of "generation" of IPAs that have been all the rage lately, a lot of the formulations seem to be that you add your FWH addition and then no more hops until at least 20 min left in the boil.
