Notes



Double Mash as my Mashtun only holds about 15 pounds of grain. Once the first mash is done, drain off the wort and soak that in 3 gallons of water in a SS pot. Then clean out the mash tun and fill it with another 5 gallons of water and proceed with mashing the second 15 pounds of grain.

MaKe 3.5 liter starter of wlp-004 (Irish Ale) and step it up 2 times. Also going to use WLP-099 (Super High Gravity) days after initial pitch.

Primary will be about 3 weeks and secondary will be about 2 months with Heaven Hill Whiskey and some jack daniels bourbon barrel smoking chips for the wood.

Bottle with no more than about 3.5 or 4 ounces of cane sugar.

Takes about 3 or 4 months before they are actually drinkable. Best after about 1 year.
