Special Instructions

1.
Boil City Water and allow to return down to 150F
2.
Steep specialty grains using a fine mesh bag (be very careful not to squeeze or crush the grains. Let them drain gently)
3.
Add malt extra (off heat) and blend well.
4.
bring wort to a boil once extract is mixed in
5.
Boil for 15 minutes before adding hops (in a hop bag)
6.
Boil your hops for 45 minutes (no more, and be careful about measuring your hops. Too many hops will inhibit lactobacillus)
7.
Pull hops out and cool wort to 75-80 degrees
8.
Add Lactobacillus culture
9.
Let wort continue to cool in carboy to 70ish (possibly overnight)
10.
Pitch Sacchromyces and Brettanomyces and shake carboy to incorporate O2
11.
Ferment at 70ish. Primary should take up to 3 weeks with wild yeast.
12.
After 2-3 weeks, or when fermentation has clearly calmed down, and there is a disk of yeast flocculating to the bottom of the carboy, carefully siphon off the yeast cake into a clean carboy.
13.
Add fruit, and age for up to 6 months. Bottle when specific gravity has reached 1.007 or lower.
