Batch 5: 'Merican IPA: Ingredients

I'm giving this recipe another try. Here's what I got:
  • 9.9 lb. – Pale liquid extract ($34.47)
  • 10 oz. – CaraPils grains ($0.89)
  • 4 oz. – Centennial hops ($5.96)
  • 2 packets – Wyeast American Ale II Yeast (#1272) ($14.98)
  • 1 – muslin bag ($0.69)
  • 4 oz. – corn sugar ($0.29)
The total cost after tax was $61.22. I'm altering a few things from the first go around. First, I'm doubling the yeast since it didn't seem to fully attenuate the first time. (I'm still not ready to try a yeast starter.) Second, I'll be allowing the primary fermentation to go a bit longer. Finally, I'll be doing a secondary fermentation.
