Notes
  1. Steep grains for 30 - 45 min at 150 - 158ºF, depending on how much you want in.

  2. Bring to a boil & start 60 minute countdown.

  3. Schedule:
    • Willamette at 60 min
      use this time to muddle or slightly crush the coriander seeds, but don't make them a fine powder. Enough to release their flavor
    • Cascade & Whirfloc Tablet (or Irish Moss) at 15 min
    • Honey & Coriander Seeds at flameout (stir in well)

  4. Chill to below 100ºF

  5. Move to fermenter and add 2 packs of dry Safale US - 05 yeast.

  6. Rock fermenter or manually mix in the yeast.

  7. Cover with lid and attach air lock. Ferment for up to 2 weeks or until bubbles stop in air lock. ABV may be higher than what's listed here. Be sure to measure Specific Gravity after this time period.

  8. Move to secondary carboy for ~7 days and let sit. May reduce time if you feel no more fermentation is happening. Measure Specific Gravity again to confirm.

  9. Boil 5oz priming sugar and 2 cups water. Pour into bottling bucket. Siphon beer from carboy on top of the priming sugar. Bottle and let sit for another two weeks.

  10. Chill before drinking. This is an unfiltered beer so it is recommended that the bottle be slowly rolled on its side to evenly distribute any sediment (extra flavor!). Don't shake it.

  11. Enjoy!
