Special Instructions

1.
Dough in with 6.3 gal of 167 deg water for a mash temp of 153-156.
2.
Hold mash for 1 hr, then pull 2 gal of the first runnings. Boil down to half (for kettle carmellization), then pull the rest of the wort to your boil pot.
3.
Sparge as normal, then vigorously boil for 120 min. Cool and pitch yeast, keep primary fermentation around 60.
4.
Once primary fermentation is complete, transfer to secondary and leave at cellar temps (50-55 or so) for 3-6 months, or as long as you can stand it!
