Notes

Yes, this is built for a non-alcoholic beer. Aim for a good alcoholic beer to get a goon N/A beer. It is easiest to keg. Carbonating in bottle is difficult.

Ferment normally and keep on the primary yeast cake as long as you would like. Rack into boil pot and bring temp up to 182-187F and hold temp. Small bubbles will appear and a foam will develop on the surface of the beer. This is the alcohol burning off. When foam is gone cool and rack to secondary (I rack to keg) Dry hop for two weeks minimum. Carbonate normally.

If you want a good beer with alcohol then ignore the previous and ferment normally. rack to secondary and dry hop for 14 days. Carbonate and enjoy.
