Notes

Recipe: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/caramel-amber-
ale.167880/

Recipe has this fermentation schedule:

  • Primary: 5 days @ 63F
  • Secondary: 2 @ 65F
  • Additional: 60 @ 50F
    This seems excessive and I will use my usual process. If it doesn't turn out, I'll try this schedule.
