Notes

Kettle size: 20
Trub: 1.375gal = 5.5qt = 4.5qt kettle loss + 1qt line loss
Boil off rate: 1.0
Grain absorption: 0.07
=> Strike water 9.6gal (9gal, 2.4qt; 36.34L), 137f
2.4qt = 2.27L

> Water: Hit minimums on Ca and Mg, keep the Cl:SO4 ratio low and equal. Do not favor flavor / maltiness or bitterness / dryness.

> Oxygenate the chilled wort to a level of 14 ppm dissolved oxygen.

> Pitch yeast and ferment at 64F (wort temperature), allowing temperature to rise to 70F over one week (raise 1 degree per day). If yeast seems to be stalling, do not be afraid to raise temperature as high as 75F to ensure proper attenuation. Target FG: 3.1P

> Fine with gelatin

> The beer will improve greatly if conditioned just above freezing for 4 weeks before serving and will continue to change over time. Sampling is recommended.
