Notes

Alternate Yeast: WLP830 German Lager Yeast

Procedures:
Step infusion mash. Add 11 quarts of 140ºF water to the crushed grain. Stir, stabilize and hold the temperature at 132ºF for 30 minutes. Add 5.5 quarts boiling water and bring up to 155ºF for about 30 minutes. Raise temperature to 167ºF, lauter and sparge with 3.5 gallons of 170ºF water. Collect about 6 gallons of runoff.

Boil: Add 60-minute hops and bring to a full, vigorous boil. Total boil time is 60 minutes. When 20 minutes remain, add the 20-minute hops. When 10 minutes remain, add the Irish Moss. When 1 minute remains, add the 1-minute hops. After a total wort boil of 60 minutes, off the heat and place the covered pot in a running cold-water bath for 30 minutes. Strain and sparge the wort into a sanitized fermenter. Bring the total volume to 5.5 gallons with additional cold water if necessary. Aerate the wort very well. Pitch the yeast when the wort is about 70ºF.

Primary Fermentation: 55º for one week
Secondary Fermentation: 35-45ºF for 3-6 weeks
