Notes

Can't do grits. PITA. Flaked Maize FTW

Pull 6L and make RWS. 22c @ ~ 14 - 18 hour lead time. Add nutes

Main batch - 14c ferment
Days 1-3 = 2 psi
Days 3-5 = 12psi
Days 6 = 25psi + ramp to 18c

Ready in 10 days to be put in fridge. Table salt 5g + gelatin to fine PER keg. Perfect combo to bulk up such a ultra low ABV beer.
