Notes

This is my first brew using the home grown first year Columbus hops.
Primary fermentation will last for 10 days.
At this point I will bottle about one gallon and then rack the remaining 5 gallons for secondary fermentation for another 2 weeks. I will cold crash for 3 days and add gelatin. I will cold crash an additional 3 days and then keg.
