Notes

Pitch yeast at 62 deg F, free rise to 63 deg. F. Ferment under pressure at 1 bar (+/- 15 psi). At 2/3 final gravity raise temp slowly over 2 days to 66 deg. F. for D rest. under pressure at 1 bar. On day 9, crash to 38 deg. F for min. 24 hours. Transfer to conditioning at 34 deg. F. for min. 3 weeks under pressure at 15 psi. Note: If I had more time, would have conditioned for a week or so longer.
