Notes
  • Original pre-boil volume was 7.5 Gallons, increased based on elevation above sea level and its affects on the boiling point of water.

    1. Raise 5.6 Gallons of water to 160F for strike temp on grain.
    2. Add Amylase Enzyme to the mash, post strike.
    3. Mash for 75 minutes.
    4. Sparge with 2.5 Gallons of water at 149F. To reach a final volume of ~7-7.25 Gallons.
    5. Boil for 60 minutes flowing Hops schedule.
    6. Using submersion chiller cool wort to ~60F.
    7. Transfer to fermentation vessel and pitch yeast.
    8. Allow for natural fermentation temperatures.
