Notes

Single infusion mash at 154°F., using 1.5 qts water per pound of grain. Sparge to collect 7.5 gallons of wort.

Add hops at beginning of 60-minute boil. Add orange peel and coriander in last 10 minutes of boil.

Chill wort, pitch yeast starter, and ferment at 65°F. for one week, then transfer to secondary for two weeks.

Bottle with priming sugar and condition for two weeks. Optional: serve with a slice of orange.

If you want a more traditional interpretation, substitute Wyeast 3942 for the strain listed in the recipe
