Notes

"Dionysus /daɪ.əˈnaɪsəs/ (Ancient Greek: Διόνυσος, Dionysos) was the god of the grape harvest, winemaking and wine, of ritual madness and ecstasy in Greek mythology. "

Sacch rest at 152F for 75 min. The rice hulls will provide the structure for the bed that you need to get the goodness washed into the kettle. Boil. Kill the flame, add the 0 min hops, stir, cover and let stand for 60 minutes. Aerate, pitch and set to 69F for 10 to 14 days. Cold crash for 2 days to 37F and then bring back to 69F for dry hopping. 3 day dry hop. Bottle and condition for 21 days at 69F.
