Adjust for your batch size/efficiency. I like 6 gallons in the fermenter due to trub loss/dry hop absorption. I'll usually get exactly 5 gallons in the keg with a beer like this.

Make an appropriately sized starter with Wyeast 1318, Yeast Bay Conan, or whatever strain you like for this style.

Mash at 149F for 60-75 min (or until conversion is completed). Add half of the water salt additions to the mash and the rest at sparge. Boil 90 minutes (adjust boil volume accordingly). Chill to 170F and start Whirlpool additions.

Pitch at 68F and hold steady for the first few days. After the first dry hop addition (when krauzen starts to go down or approx. 1.025 SG), let it naturally rise to 72-74F to ensure complete attenuation. Wait a few days and add the second dry hop addition, then wait a few more days to package. Drink it quickly!
