Notes

Mash at 150F for 60 min. Add First Wort Hops when entire boil volume approaches 160F. 90 minute boil. 0 Minute hopstand hops get added at flameout and stand for 45 minutes. 0 min Aroma hops get added at 160F during chilling. Pitch and ferment 66F. When fermentation slows, rack to purged keg on top of bagged (and weighted, you want them submerged but not interfering with dip tube) whole hops and let fermentation finish at 64F for 5 days under a little pressure. Drop to 38F or so and force carb. Carb to 2.0vol and enjoy fresh!
