Notes

Rehydrate yeast for 30 mins. Oxygenate wort for 30mins. Ferment at 18.5c. Dry hop close to end of fermentetion. Chill at 2c for 4 days then rack to keg. Carb to 2.2 to 2.5.

Key here is to get the mash PH down to between 5.2 to 5.4.
Mash for 75mins@ 67c, mash out 76c 10mins, sparge 10 mins, boil 90mins.
Enjoy
