Notes

How to add your honey:
I used very floral honey in this brew, but you can use any type as long as it is natural and has no additives etc..

I mashed 20mins at 64C and 40minutes at 66C.

When you have 5 minutes left in the boil, take some of the hot wort in to a separate container and add / dissolve your honey there in the hot wort. Hot wort will also sanitize your container so no need to stress that. Once your honey is fully dissolved, your boil should be also already done. Add the honey infused liquid back to the wort and give a good stir and start cooling down your wort.

Brewers Clarex, add if you want / have it in hand. I used it only for clarify the beer faster, since I did not have the possibility to cold crash this beer. So you can skip it and use gelatin or skip all together.

Tasting Comment:
This beer is very floral and easy drinking beer and honey compliments the style very well. One of the best beers I've ever made!
