Notes

Mash on the longer side (and maybe a little cooler - 150F or so) to encourage a more-fermentable wort.

You might also consider adding about half a pound of rice hulls to aid in filtering and avoiding a stuck sparge (thanks, huskless rye…), but I don't.

Aside from that, this is a pretty simple beer to make! Add your hops according to the schedule noted in the recipe, chill, pitch, and ferment at about 67F.

When you see the bubbling in your airlock more-or-less stop, add your dry hops (I use a free addition of pellets). Wait five days, cold crash, and then rack out from underneath any floating hops and package!

I like this beer with a solid amount of carbonation, so target about 2.5 volumes of CO2.
