recently brewed the following beer using Riwaka Hops:
9 pounds 2 row
0.5 pounds Caramunich
0.5 pounds 10L Crystal
0.5 oz Magnum (60)
1.0 oz Riwaka (5)
1.0 oz Riwaka (KO)
1.0 oz Riwaka (DH 1.5 weeks)
It was excellent. My question is that, if I’m using the same malt bill, and using Magnum to bitter, what weight of Nelson Sauvin would I use to make a similar beer. This is mainly a trial run with Nelson Sauvin to test it out. Riwaka AA% is 5-7 and Nelson Sauvin AA% is 11-13.

because the additions you are changing are flavour/aroma id just switch the hop type and keep the hopping levels the same

That’s what I was thinking, but wanted a few opinions first.

Personally, I think it’s a bit light on the hops, but if you liked the original recipe, stick with what works for you.

I was really pleased with it. I thought initially that it may not be enough, but it turned out great.
