Notes

2 Oranges worth of Zest
2 Orange Peels, pith scraped off.
6 Oranges fruit separated.

Zest two of the oranges. Set aside to add to last 15 minutes of boil.

Peel the oranges and separate the sections. Save the peels from two oranges, and scrape off as much of the pith as possible to reduce bitterness.

Place fruit and peels in cheese cloth, add to pot of water and heat to 160F, then let it steep while it cools. Drain and add to fermenter before pitching yeast.
