Notes

60-minute mash at 154°F. Mash out at 170°F.

60-minute boil. 1/2 oz hops at start and another at 10 min before end of boil.

Ferment at 65°F to target ABV then increase the temperature to 75°F. Keep here for a day or so then transfer to secondary/chiller.

Cellar chill at 55°F for a week or two then cold crash at 32°F for a few days.

Rack and enjoy.
