Notes

Grains treated with 2% by weight water just before grinding.

Mash water boiled before use to reduce oxygen level. Add whirlpool hops and spices at flameout, 5 min whirlpool, then chill as normal.
Use 2L starter
Chill wort to 63° F (17° C) and ferment for 7 days, allowing temperature to free rise to 73° F (23° C) and ferment to completion.
