- Bring 2 gallons of water to 160* turn off heat - Steep Carapils for 20 min with lid on - Top up to 4 gallons, bring to boil - Remove from heat, add LME - Return to heat, bring to boil, start hops additions as listed - Cool, transfer to fermenter - Top up to 5 gallons - Add yeast Fermented for 1 week at 68*. Then racked onto all 8 lbs of strawberries and let it set for 6 days at 68*, then racked back off of the thawed strawberries into a tertiary. I kinda got busy and it ended up staying in the tertiary for 4 weeks, that wasn't planned and I don't know that it's necessary. Then bottled. SG: 1.042 |
