- 1 tsp
Irish Moss - for last 10-20 minutes (omitted from calculations)
Irish Moss
A dried red-brown marine algae. Fining agent to remove large proteins. Negatively charged polymer attracts positively charged protein-tannin complexes (extracted from grain husks and hops) during the boil. This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.

Wyeast 1056 American Ale™
Wyeast 1056 American Ale™
Used commercially for several classic American ales. This strain ferments dry, finishes soft, smooth and dean, and is very well balanced.
Notes
Some people suggest Irish ale yeast - but I say nay nay. Not a g member yet so I cannot add dry hop to recipe. But I would lightly dry hop this w/ 1-1.5 oz Centennial.
