Notes

Mash the grains at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes. Vorlauf until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains and top up as necessary to obtain 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort. Boil 60 minutes, following the hops schedule.

After the boil, chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 60°F (16°C). Aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air and pitch the yeast. Ferment at 60°F (16°C) for 4 days, then let the temperature rise to 68°F (20°C) and hold for an additional 7 days. Allow the beer to free rise from there until 2 days after airlock activity ceases, then crash the beer to 35°F (2°C), bottle or keg, and carbonate to about 2 volumes of CO2.
