Procedure:
Heat 6 gal RO strike water to 165 F. Add CACL2, Gypsum, and Termamyl to strike water. Mash in grains. Temperature should drop, but you should stir for a second, then maybe even recirculate, until it gets down to 155F at least, then add SEBamyl L. Then recirculate for 90 minutes at 150F after you stir in the SEBamyl L thoroughly.
Heat to 168F, and sparge with 2.5 gal of 170F water. Boil for 60 minutes - 1 oz of Willamette at 60 min, and 1 oz at 0 Min, I do a 45 min WP at 200F. At Malto, Yeast Nutrient, and Whirfloc at 15 minutes before flame out.
Ferment at 66F until gravity is below 1.013. Cold Crash to 35F (option to add Biofine when you crash). Also option to add 1 oz Willamette dry hop before you cold crash for 2-3 days. would require additional racking before cold crashing.
