Notes
  1. Brown sugar added as syrup on day three of primary fermentation.
  2. Honey is added as a syrup to secondary on day one.
  3. Primary fermentation is 9 to 10 days.
  4. Secondary fermentation is for two weeks.
  5. Carboy is then cold crashed at 34 degrees F for 5 days.
  6. Gelatin solution is then added and allowed to settle for another 3 days.
  7. At this point I will rack this to a keg or bottling bucket.
