Notes

Original recipe from Sarah (daftcat brewing).

75 minute mash
60 minute boil


Ferment starting with a fermentation temperature of 70-72 ºF for the first few days and then raising the temperature to 75-80 ºF to encourage development of sourness (Lactobacillus, Pediococcus)

5 kilos of destoned, blended and sieved cherries added to the primary fermenter after 2 weeks of fermenting
