Notes

This recipe is being developed to explore the yeast character of certain kveik strains. The initial plan is to create a split batch, fermenting half with a commercial Voss strain, and the second with a similar strain, Rivenes. Both of these strains are reputed to create subtle orange peel flavors, which should match the style. I'm leaving out coriander, chamomile, and similar traditional ingredients as the first batch will focus on yeast character.

I'll be using a immersion circulator designed for sous-vide to drive the fermentation temps up to around 85 degrees, but a warm weather brew schedule would be nice too.
