Notes

Collected unhopped wort and boiled for 10 minutes. Knocked out into CO2 purged HLT and pitched lactobacillus blend. 24 hours later pH dropped from 5.2 to a 3.5. Transferred blend into wort kettle, brought to boil, and hopped beer (with aged Pacifica) at specified intervals. Cooled wort and pitched Whitbread yeast starter. Let ferment for 7 days then split the batch into two separate three gallon carboys. Aged one carboy with oak chips soaked in Moscato. Aged the other carboy with tart cherries. After two months transferred into Cornelius keg and pressurized. Currently cellaring beer.
