I'm going to pick up the grain bill for this today. Will hopefully be brewing it today or tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to the end result.

Hey just curious on the dry hop(7 days) does that mean dry hop on the 7th day into the secondary ferment and how long 48hrs? , or dry hop for 7 days on day 1 of the secondary ferment. I can't seem to figure it out when majority post this way.
