Notes

"The mesopelagic (Greek μέσον, middle) (also known as the middle pelagic or twilight zone) is that part of the pelagic zone that extends from a depth of 200 to 1000 metres (~660 to 3300 feet)[1] below the ocean surface. It lies between the photic epipelagic above and the aphotic bathypelagic below, where there is no light at all."

Sacch rest at 152F for 60 min. Stir in the rice huls prior to washing/sparging; the rice hulls will provide additional structure for the bed that you need to get the goodness washed into the kettle. Boil. Kill the flame, add the 0 mon hops, swirl cover and let sit for a 60 min hop stand. Aerate, pitch and set to 68F for 12 to 17 days. Cold crash for 2 days to 37F and then bring back to 68F for dry hopping. 3 day dry hop. Bottle and condition for 21 days at 68F.
