Notes

This is my first attempt with a harvested liquid yeast. I've always used Nottingham dry yeast in the past and decided to go with this WLP051 which I purchased for my last batch of an American IPA that I just brewed.
Brown sugar syrup will be added on day three of primary fermentation. I will bottle about one gallon of this after a two week primary fermentation. I will then rack to secondary for another two weeks and then cold crash in fridge for 4 days. I will add gelatin and chill for another 4-5 days and then rack to a keg.
