Notes

Special Roast 50L

Use 5 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast, 1 liquid yeast package, or make an appropriate starter. Ferment at 68° F (20° C). When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 1 to 1.5 volumes and serve at 52 to 55° F (11 to 13° C). Since this beer has a fairly light body, excessive carbon dioxide can make it seem extra thin, harsh, and hard to drink. With the right level of CO2, the body of the beer will be just right, and it won’t seem watery or harsh.
