Notes

Mash at 152F for 60 Min. Batch or Fly Sparge. (My Pre Boil Gravity was 1.058)

Boil 90 Minutes adding Hops at times listed.

Pitch WLP862 yeast after cooling and ferment at 63F

After 5 Days Pitch Second yeast starter of WLP800 and set Fermenter to 53-55F until D-rest. Gravity reading at D-rest was 1.025.

When final Gravity is reached transfer to secondary and lager for 3 weeks.

Add Dry Hop additions and continue lagering for 3 more weeks to finish.
