Notes

Can also use WLP810 San Francisco Lager.
Dough-in with 4.5 gallons water and target a temperature of 150 °F.
Hold the mash at 150 °F for 1 hour.
Add enough near boiling water to raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F.
Sparge with 170 °F water until volume is around 5.9 gallons.
Chill to 62 °F, rack and pitch. I prefer a 24 hour 2L starter.
Ferment at 62 °F for one week.
Target a carbonation level of 2.5 to 3 volumes.
