Notes
I have duplicated this beer because it is my best. I rest at 122f for 20min and mash at a high tempreture(158-153f) slide in one hour. If you like the malty side of beer, this is it! I use medium hard water and watch my Ph(5.2) in the mash. Make sure there is no chlorine in any of your water, the beer is very sensitive! Enjoy.
