Notes

start at 65 F, free rise to 70+, slowly boost to 80F when fermentation slows/peaks. Going to try fermenting with a sanitized foil airlock and adding candi sugar (or honey - if I can find something interesting) during primary. Need this to get to a fairly low gravity since it will be bottled. Thinking 3 volumes of CO2 in some fairly sturdy bottles.

Considering adding ~ 250mL of a WLP644 starter I'm growing up for a 100% Brett IPA (this should add additional tropical aromas/flavors and maybe some funk).

This batch will be split after primary - 2.5 gallons will be dry hopped (half all dry hop amounts) and 2.5 gallons will be racked onto tart Wisconsin cherries with some sour bottle dregs (Jolly Pumpkin, Mobcraft Existence, ??). I also plan on brewing a couple 1 gallon batches for blending.

Starter: .75L (4-5 pellets simcoe) on stir plate (5/6).
