Notes

Fermentation:
preferably as low as possible, thrives best at 15-17 and then warmer after main fermentation.

Stored cold for 30 days.
Ferment the beer at 60°F (15°C) or as close as you can get to 60°F (15°C). Once the fermentation is complete, find a cold place to store the beer for a few weeks. A lagering period will help the beer if you can do it, but don’t sweat it if you can’t.
