Notes

Mash grains in 3.25 Gallons x 90 min at 154F. At end of Mash add 13 oz crushed Acid malt and stir and sparge off 6.5 gallons to ultra sanitary metal pot fermenter. Purge are space with Co2. Cool to 90 to 95F and pitch 8oz Goodbelly Mango probiotic drink. Flush again with Co2. Lacto ferment with heat belt at 90 to 95F for 48 to 120 hrs to sour. Boil as usual to 5.5 gallons.

I substituted strawberries for raspberries. I tried one week after bottling and it was amazing.
