Notes

Inspired by HBT Biermuncher's Oktoberfast (http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=39021) but tweaked to fit my tastes & inventory.

Use STC-1000+ DARK LAGER PROFILE (Pr5)(40+ days)
Pitch yeast < 68° (then start profile)
SP0: 54°
dh0: 336 (14 day ferment)
SP1: 54°
dh1: 24 (1 day ramp up)
SP2: 68°
dh2: 48 (2 day D-rest)
SP3: 68°
dh3: 48 (2 days ramp down to lager)
SP4: 34° (Crash, fine and keg)
dh4: 504 (21 day lager in keg)
