Notes

This recipe uses reverse osmosis (RO) water. Adjust all brewing water to a pH of 5.5 using phosphoric acid. Add 1⁄2 tsp. each of calcium sulfate and calcium chloride to the mash.

Mash the two base malts for 60 minutes at 154 °F (68 °C). Add dark and crystal malts, recirculate for 15 minutes. Then sparge and collect 6.5 gallons (24.5 L) of wort. Boil the wort for 60 minutes, adding hops at the times indicated in the recipe.

Chill the wort to 64 °F (18 °C), pitch the yeast, allowing temperature to rise to 68 °F (20 °C), and ferment until complete. Dry hop the beer for five days. Rack the beer, prime and bottle condition, or keg and force carbonate.
