Notes

Mash @ 150f for 75 Minutes, boil for 60 Minutes
-Ferment in low to mid 50’s for 7-9 days, then let temperature rise to room temp over the next few days to let yeast finish out and consume diacetyl. The max temp I let this get to near the tail end of fermentation is 68f. Straight from the fermenter, it tasted wonderful, but I enjoy aging my lagers to help with clarification. One thing I would possibly change is the hops.
