Notes

Ferment at 70°F (21°C) for about 9 days )until primary fermentation is done).
Rack into secondary and add oak chips for about a week or so. taste to see if needs longer.

Note: I would leave in primary and add oak chips to muslin bag. I don't like moving to secondary without a closed system. Risk of O2 to great. 2-3 weeks on trub will not affect beer.
