AG #5 and #6 - Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde - Recipe

I have been wanting to come up with a Parti-Gyle recipe for a while in order to increase my brew day capacity (due to the fact that brew days are few and far between these days) and so this is what I have come up with:

Total Grain Bill will be:
5200g Maris Otter
2800g Munich Malt
350g Crystal 100 (100g will be added after the first runnings and allowed steep for 20 mins)
150g Crystal 60 (All will be added after the first runnings and allowed steep for 20 mins)
190g Caraipls (.25kg will be added after the first runnings and allowed steep for 20 mins)

This should give me a total batch gravity of 1044. Using a Parti-gyle of 1/3 - 2/3 this should give me an IPA of 1066 and an APA of 1040 (the APA boosted by the addition of 300g of DME late in the boil).

Edit : Check out the brew day post to see how I fared (major gravity miscalculation happened!)

The hops schedules are as follows:

Dr Jekyl - AIPA (14.5 litres) - 6.5%

21g Chinook - 60 mins
32g Cascade - 15 mins
32g Amarillo - 1 mins
35g Cascade - 1 mins

IBU's approximately 67

Mr Hyde - APA (27 litres) - 3.9%

15g Chinook - 60 mins
20g cascade - 15 mins
22g cascade - 10 mins
20g cascade - 5 mins
20g cascade - 1 min

IBU's approximately 30

Hoping to brew this up next week and will report back with how it all went, this will be my first attempt at this type of process (i.e. Partigyle) and so I expect an eventful brew day!
