Notes

-Mash for 60 mins.
-Sparge.
-Boil for 15 minutes to sterilize.
-Pre-acidify wart with lactic acid to 4.5pH to aid souring, prevent spoilage and supposedly help head retention.
-Cool down to 32-33c.
-Add Lacto culture. (IBS support pills (7) 140 billion lactobacillus plantarum)
-Cover and let sit for ~12-36 hours at 31c until soured to your liking (3.2-3.4 pH).
-Re-boil for 45 minutes with hop additions and finings.
-Chill, pitch 2 packets yeast (With nutrient maybe), ferment.

-Pre-boil gravity was 1.055
-After pitching 7 IBS pills (mistakingly without opening the caps), 17 hours in the pH was still at 4.5. I pitched another 5 IBS pills this time opening the caps. 12 hours later the pH was 3.6.
-I'm aiming for a pH of 3.2-3.4.
