Willamette 5.3a 1.75 oz - 15 min boil
Cascade 5.4a 4.0 oz - dry hopped 2.0 oz @ carboy in 2ndary

Mash Schedule:

Infusion mash: 155F for 90 minutes - adjust water PH to 5.2 - 5.4 for maximum extraction efficiency by using gypsum. Mash with 7.4 gallons of water.

Sparge for 90 minutes with 7.0 gallons of water and recycle the first gallon of the runoff. Again adjust sparge water to PH reading of 5.2 - 5.4 for maximum extraction efficiency.

Brewers Notes:

Start two 2 quart yeast starters....one for each carboy. Primed with 1 - 1/4 dry malt extract per carboy for bottling which produces a much finer bubble and creamier head. During 90 minute boil after the first 60 minute with the Perle hops add the 3.0 oz of Willamette and 2 teaspoons of Irish Moss.....15 minutes later add the final 1.75oz of Willamette for the boil.

Enjoy!! Beer took a 3rd place in an A.H.A. sponsored event.
