Notes

Pitch three packages of liquid yeast per 5.5 gallons of wort. plus the additional 17.25 grams per 5 gallons of custom yeast saflager s23 rehydrated, pitch all yeast at 58 degrees. Start the primary fermentation at 54, wait 7 days and then ramp to 58, hold for 7 days. Check gravity if close to final then rack into secondary carboys, hold at 58 for one week, and begin to drop temp 5 degrees per day until you hit 40 degrees. Hold at 40 degrees for three to five weeks. Keg at 2.5 Enjoy
