Notes

Going to take ~ 2oz Saaz and create a tea with 1 quart of water heated to 170F. Then add a couple days into primary fermentation. Then dry hop near bottling time.

The yeast has a mix of ale yeast and Lacto. I want the lacto to do its thing!

Whirlfloc tablet with 15min in boil.

Mash at 149F.
