Notes

Mash at 154°F (68°C) for 60 minutes. Mash out at 168°F (76°C), with pre-boil wort volume of 7 gal. (26.5 L).

Bring to a rolling boil for 60 minutes, adding hops at specified intervals from end of boil. Chill wort to 62°F (17°C) and pitch yeast.

Ferment in primary at 62°F (17°C) until fermentation slows significantly (7–9 days). Optional: Rack to secondary fermenter and age for 10–14 days at 65°F (18°C).

Keg at 2.5 volumes (5 g/L) of CO2 or bottle condition with 4 oz. (113 g) corn sugar.
