Notes

Mill the grains and mash at 147°F (64°C) for 45 minutes. Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate.

Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule. After the boil, chill to about 50°F (10°C). Aerate well and pitch plenty of healthy yeast. Ferment at 52°F (11°C). Toward the end of fermentation, perform a diacetyl rest: Allow the temperature to rise to 55°F (13°C) and hold for 72 hours. Slowly crash the beer 1–2°F (1°C) per day, get it as cold as possible, and lager for at least 4 weeks. Package and carbonate to about 2.6 volumes of CO2.

BREWER’S NOTES
Depending on your water, add some gypsum to the mash to help highlight the hop character. This beer is delicious and bright when fresh, but it still retains a ton of hop character with a little bit of age on it.
