Notes

Foundation from Kitchen Sink Wheat which had a great hop character. Moved 20 min hops to 15 min and changed 5 min addition to whirlpool. Changed aroma to dry-hop.

Base recipe for multi-yeast experiment.

6/20/19: Changed mash schedule from stepped 148/150/152/154 to 152/154/156. Added crystal 10 and crystal 60

10/2019: Changed 1oz Cent to 2oz Cascade at flameout. Aroma with last batch was great. NO Columbus @ 60 min, armpit character noted from this batch. Added 1oz to dry-hop. Removed a 15 minute and moved to whirlpool.

10/2020: Too bitter on the frontend. Boiled with 3oz Sterling @60 min. No bueno. Shifted bittering charge to 30 mins. Malt, color and head retention were great. Fermented with WLP007, swapped main recipe with that, tasty.
