Notes: Mash at 149°F (65°C) for 60 minutes.
Add half of the water salt additions to the mash and the rest at sparge.
Add the FWH hops during runoff, immediately after vorlauf, and allow them to steep in the hot wort as the mash is sparged.
Boil for 60 minutes.
Whirlpool for 40 minutes (from start to rest) following the hops schedule.
Pitch the yeast and ferment at 67°F (19°C) for 2–3 days, then allow the temperature to rise slowly to 73°F (23°C) by the end of fermentation to ensure full attenuation.
YEAST: London Ale III (Wyeast 1318), Dry English Ale (White Labs WLP007), or Vermont/Conan
When fermentation reaches 1.5–2° Plato from terminal gravity (1.020–1.022), add the first dry-hop addition.
About 4 days later, add the second dry-hop addition for another 4 days. Package at 2.6 volumes of CO2 and consume fresh. |

Notes: A little too much bitterness and not enough hop aroma. Color was spot on. Would use less hop shot and increase dry hopping.
Used fermzilla. No O2 because used the cold crash guardian. But need to adjust floating dip tube because 1/2 gallon left in fermenter. |
