Notes

2 Liter starter with 2 Yeast packs = 454 B cells (7.2 oz DME)

After about half the way attenuated, raise temp to 60 over a day or two to ensure a good diacetyl rest.

Do a diacetyl test by taking a sample and popping it into the microwave for 10 seconds. If any butter smell exists, keep it in the fermentor for a few more days.

Cold crash prior to kegging, lager for 4 weeks, then carbonate to 2.25 volumes.

A prior version of this recipe took 1st Place in the 2017 Oregon Brew Crew Fall Classic.
