Notes

Add 500mg potassium metabisulphite to 20 gallons water to remove chlorine/chloramine (as required).
Water treated with brewing salts to: Ca=50, Mg=10, Na=16, Cl=70, S04=70 (see our Water Adjustment guide for complete details)
(Hit minimums on Ca and Mg, keep Na very low, and keep the Cl and SO4 values low and balanced).
Use 1.5 quarts of water per pound of grain for mash thickness.
Mash at 149F for 90 minutes (single infusion mash).
Raise mash to 168F (mash-out).
Rinse grain slowly for 60-90 minutes collecting 14.9 gallons (fly sparge).
Boil for 90 minutes adding hops and clarifier per schedule. Final volume is 12 gallons.
Chill to 68F. Aerate well. Add yeast.
Ferment at 68F.
