Notes

Zest 7 cuties (mini oranges) and sanitize in vodka. Add to fermenter after 4 days. (Mandarin oranges are an acceptable substitute)

After 11 days, move beer to brite tank (secondary fermenter)

Additional note: This recipe is designed for use with a 8 gal MLT & kettle and requires a top off into the fermenter. If you have a 10+ gal vessel, increase your sparge water amount to 3.5 gal and the boil volume to 6 gal.
