Notes

Add blackprinz end of mash. Added big pitch of yeast (7 qt starter), finished primary in 4 days. Started @ 45F day 1, 2, ramp to 51F day3, 55F day4, 58F day5,6, 64F days7-10, or till no airlock activity noted. Drop back to 40F over 4 days, then lager 31F 4 wks.
*NOTE finished beer too roasty for style. Next time, use more Munich I, than II, take out Caramunich, wheat, use caramel 40 instead.
