Notes

Mash as usual. Boil for 10 minutes. Cool wort to 105. Add Good Belly Probiotic (Lacto). 16 oz (1/2 carton) Cover pot with plastic wrap and lid. OK to cool to room temp - 72%. 24-48 hours until pH gets to 3.4 - 3.5. Taste to confirm acidity. Then run typical boil with hops, etc.

Freeze, thaw, then crush in sanitized bowl/blender 3.5 lbs of blackberries. Add berries to secondary fermentation for 7 days.
