Notes

Part 2 of my Helles Series "Ex-beer-ment": To brew three batches with the same malts, hops and water profile , and change the yeast and compare the tasting notes.

Pitch yeast at 62 deg F. Ferment under pressure at 1 bar (+/- 12 psi). At 2/3 final gravity raise temp slowly over 2 days to 70 deg. F. for D rest. under pressure at 1 bar. On day 14, crash to 38-39 deg. F for min. 48 hours. Transfer to conditioning at 33-35 deg. F. for 5 weeks (or as long as you can stand it) under pressure at 15 psi.
