Notes

-- Add Water Agt ingredients to mash water while heating to strike temperature.
-- Add additional lactic acid to sparge water while heating to 170F. No additional salts are added to the sparge water, which is the same source water used for the mash (Chippewa Springs).
-- Mash pH calculated to 5.4 based on grain + mash water (11 qt).
-- Add Irish moss and yeast nutrient 15 minutes before the end of boil.
-- Add Brewers Clarex to the primary fermentor with the yeast.
-- Add dry hops to secondary fermentor 3-5 days before bottling.
-- Secondary fermentor is a 5-gallon Big Mouth Bubbler with a Depth Charge insert.
-- Transfer beer to bottling bucket with a sanitized muslin mesh grain/hop bag attached to the auto-siphon outlet hose to catch any hops that escape the Depth Charge.

Flavor is a little harsh and unbalanced. I haven’t generally been happy with dry hopped beer, at least the stuff I have made. It always seems harsh without the floral character.
