Recipe Help - West Coast IPA
Hi all, 3x extract brewer looking to branch out to all grain BIAB. Been wanting to brew an IPA and figured taking inspiration from one of my favs would be a good idea. Luckily for me, Meanwhile Brewing provides data sheets for each of their beers, so I modeled this recipe on Secret Beach, their San-Diego style IPA.

Anything I’m way off base on? Anything y’all would tweak or outright remove? Not really able to do a lot of water chemistry right now, but I can source some bottled spring water as my tap is very hard.
Thanks for any help!
EDIT: Looks like I’m adding a sizable dry hop at the minimum and potentially working on water chemistry. Thanks for everyone who gave suggestions!
