Directions:
Stepped mash: 146° F for 15 minutes; 156° F for 30 minutes; mash out at 168° F for 10-15 minutes.
90 minute boil, following schedule listed in the ingredients. After boil, add whirlpool hops once wort is below 170° F to prevent isomerization of hops.
Ferment at 68° F for 2 days and increase temperature by 2° F on day 3. Allow temperature to free rise to 72-73° F by day 5.
Dry hop for 3 days when final gravity is within 0.5-1 Plato. Complete a diacetyl rest before cold crashing. Do this by taking a 2-4 oz sample that can be capped. Place sample in 140° F water for 20 minutes. Allow sample to come down to room temperature and test for diacetyl by smell and taste. If still present wait another 24-48 hours and retest. Only cold crash after the sample has passed the test. Crash at 32° F for 4-6 days and transfer to package.
