Notes

To reduce the vegetal flavor you can sub 35ml of hop extract for the 7 oz Columbus bittering addition.

Do a 1.5L yeast starter and step up to a 3L yeast starter to get the desired pitching rate. Oxygenate 90 seconds with pure O2. Ferment at 67° F (19° C) until fermentation activity subsides, then rack to secondary. Add first set of dry hops on top of the racked beer and age 7-9 days, then add the second set. Age five more days then cold crash for 1 day. Fine with gelatin and then bottle or keg the beer.
