Notes

Ferment a little bit warmer (to help ensure a robust and full attenuation) and start at 56°F (13°C).

Hold it there for one week after the first signs of fermentation.

Then let it free-rise to about 70°F (21°C).

When fermentation is finished, cold crash and then package.

Carbonate to an even two volumes of CO2, and then store cold for at least six weeks.
