Great IPA recipe?
I have looked at recipe after recipe and they all, of course, vary by a few details. As we know a few minor details can mean the difference between a good and a great beer.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a Great IPA recipe?
Thanks
Zion
I'm bottling YOURS this weekend, Walker, 'kept that I screwed it up. In your extensive hops additions, I somehow missed the Chinook you use for bettering; I ended up having to use the Cascades I bought for dry hopping instead (bought more for dry hopping later). Still optimistic it'll be good.
Thanks

Yeah.... I know. 'Feed up, what can I say? Don't know how I missed that, I added up all the every-five-minute hop additions and missed the biggest one. I'm just glad the recipe called for dry hopping; otherwise I wouldn't have at least had the extra ounce of Cascade to use for bettering. I have no expectations that it'll really be much of an IPA, but the sample I took when racking was still pretty good. Reminded me an awful lot of the Boston Ale I did first, which I'm pretty sure, also used Cascade.
Thanks

OK... this is weird.
My name is Chad Walker (known on some brewing forums as "Walker-san") and I *think* this thread is in reference to my IPA recipe that calls for a mixture of 0.25oz Cascade and 0.25oz Norther Brewer to be thrown into the kettle every 5 minutes, starting at 35 minutes left in the boil and continuing to flame-out. Chinook for bittering. More Cascade for dry hopping. It's called "Kaduva IPA".
I had a hard drive death recently and I lost all my beer recipes. I have recovered several of them from various sources (my own posts on a different brewing board, print-outs I found in the garage, etc). This IPA recipe, however, is lost.
As I started searching the web to see if I could find my recipe in a message board post, I discovered that my Kaduva recipe has taken on a life of its own and has been brewed by a good number of folks in the USA and I found one reference to it from a brewer in the UK making it, too.
The thing is, I had never been to this forum until today, so I am a little puzzled as to the reference to "Walker" in this thread and strong evidence that my recipe is being discussed.
I know this is an old thread, but does anyone know what's up here? Is this discussing the Kaduva IPA recipe? How did it get on a forum I have never seen in my life?
Most importantly: does anyone actually HAVE the recipe? I'm trying to recover it! 
Walker-san from HBT? I'm DrinksWellWithOthers on that forum.
Sorry, can't help you out with tracking down your recipe. And unfortunately I don't think the guys here who have posted in this thread have been active for quite some time.
OK I just did a search on HBT and it looks like you've tracked it down.
Yeah... Walker-san from HBT.
This thread here seems broken or incomplete, doesn't it? I mean, read the first two posts. The 2nd one doesn't even seem like it is in response to the first one, and how did "Walker" get referenced in the 2nd post. Not to mention that I have never posted here, so they couldn't have been talking to me, right?
Odd, for sure.....
I are those guys and absorbed their post count.
So I assume you are off to greener pastures now Walker-san...or will you hang around a while at BKB???
Good call on the broken thread thoughts. It was before I found this site too, so maybe there was a back up sometime and some data loss in the server or something...
I'll probably just keep hanging on homebrewtalk.com. I only registered here after my searching lead me to this thread and I wanted to respond to it.

Boy is that a definition of oxymoron.
