This is copy and pasted from

This is copy and pasted from the Hop School thread on the forum 

 

 

We still need to nail down the hopping schedule for the beer,  grain bill, mash schedule, etc. was previously mentioned in the thread.  here are my thoughts:

1 oz at 60 minutes
1/4 oz at 30
Whatever amount at 15 minutes you need to reach 65 ibus with your specific hop given the previous two additions
1 1/2 oz at flameout
Remainder dry hop for exactly 5 days, no more, no less. Preferably dry hop as close to party time as possible for maximum freshness.

obviously you won't be using

obviously you won't be using mosaic hops, you're using ahtanum which are 4.4 AA so what you'll need to do is figure out what kind of additions you need to get to 65 IBUs.  Add at least an ounce at 60 then additions at 30/15/flameout.
