Notes

I use Bottled Spring water
Let the yeast work for 8 to 10 days
Move to secondary
Cool to 38 to 42
Add fining agent
Keg and force carb for 2 days and bring back to serve pressure
Enjoy!
This is a quick Octoberfest type of beer. Highly suggest using 2 packs of yeast to help speed things along.
