Notes

Bring yeast starter to targeted pitching temperature, 50 °F .

After reaching target pitching temperature, add yeast starter, shake the fermenter to aerate for four minutes, and set the carboy in 50 °F keezer.

Ferment at 50 until 50% attenuation.

Bring temperature to 62 degrees for two days for diacetyl rest. Test.
