Notes

3 vessel e-herms system, however I do a single infusion, constantly recirculating, no sparge mash. I dough in at my target mash temperature and allow the constant recirculation to bring it up to target mash temperature within 20-30 minutes. I mash for 3-6 hours--this beer received a 4 hour mash with no mashout.

I quickly lautered into the BK and threw in the 60 minute hop addition at first wort--to a hop spider. 10 minute edition added to hop spider as well. I've overdone it with Styrian Golding in the past, so I dialed it back to 1/2 oz at 10 minutes instead of 1 oz at 5.

Whirlfloc 1/2 tablet at 5 minutes, no yeast nutrient in the boil, but I used some when making the 800ml starter.

14 GRAMS OF STYRIAN ADDED AT 10 MINUTES FOR AN ADDITIONAL 2.95 IBU, BREWERS FRIEND WONT LET ME ADD A SECOND HOP*
