Notes



Mash at 153F. 90 minute boil. 0 Minute boil hops get added at flameout and stand for 45 min covered. Pitch and ferment at 66F. Raise to 68F when fermentarion slows. Cold crash to 38F when fermentation is complete. Rack or push to CO2 purged dry hop vessel, bring back to room temp and add final dry hops for 3 days. (You could also split the final dry hop and add second half on day 2 for a 4 day dry hop) Rack to CO2 purged keg and force carb at 40F. Serve at 9psi and 44F.
