Notes

Do not use Glucabuster during mash. Will ruin haze proteins.

Before pitch, rehydrate yeast in a sanitized glass with FermStart. Water should be about 80-90 deg.

Pitch at 95 F

Fermentation should take 3 days at 80 F.

Add Ascorbic acid and ALDC enzyme with dry hops to minimize hop creep and production of diacetyl.

Add dry hops just after peak fermentation to take advantage of biotransformation.

Avoid contact with Oxygen. All transfers must be closed.
