I have to say that I look through this forum trying to find good recipes. There are plenty here, but the problem that I have is that the recipe changes after getting advice from group members and the actual recipe is never updated. More importantly, how the beer turned out is rarely mentioned! If I were a forum genie, I would update the recipes so others could brew them. Obviously I'm saying this for selfish reasons.

Most of my recipes are posted after I brew them, so are accurate. If you have questions about any just ask.

Found it. What style is it? Also the hops are whole and not pelleted?
Finally, hops are set to be placed at zero minutes or flame out. Is this the case or is this dry hopping?

it's a really hoppy amber but not really to a particular style I guess. whole or pellets doesn't matter too much - i used pellets. the hops are at flameout. usually dry hopping is called out as such - 0 min pretty much always means flameout.

style is debatable, it is either an American Amber 10b or IPA 14b, tough call

the hops can be any form you have or wish to use, and zero minute hop in the recipe is meant to be added when you stop the heat being applied to the boil, then allowed to rest for 15 minutes prior to cooling

in addition I added 1.25 oz of Centennial to secondary as a dry hop

i think it's implied that you'd be chilling right away. allow them to rest in hot but not boiling wort sounds like a "whirlpool addition" to me.

they don't do much good if you start chilling right away, but that's a whole other thread

I thought about dry hopping the next batch, but I'm not sure if I really want to monkey around with it. It is a damned tasty beer as it is.
