Notes

Test the theory that secondary is not needed. Split batch. 3 gallons will be in primary only for 28 days with 14 days @ 38 degrees. Than bottled. 3 gallons will be in primary for 14 days than transferred to secondary and lager @ 38 degrees for 14 days. Than bottled. Both samples will be sent to a competition for evaluation.
