Notes

Mash low to make sure beer attenuates low enough...?? Yeah right..

Dry hop with more camomile and lemon if needed

Brewed Sunday 8th
Transferred to secondary Sunday 15th

Stuck ferment @ 1.022 for 3 days despite bringing upstairs for more warmth - Added 1 satchet of mangrove jacks Amylase enzyme on 18/12. Bubbles in the airlock started 1 hour after adding!

Kegged 2L to sample after 2 days of enzyme - 1.011 and still fermenting. Crisp dry and a bit acidic, not really obvious lemon or chamomile flavours. Much thirst quenching.

22/12 gravity 1.008, bubbles through air lock 2 per minute
