Step two in the WLP 001 vs WLP090 experiment. The Scottish 70- is in the kegerator carbonating and lagering. The yeast slurry was saved from each fermenter and I will be repitching them into this pale ale. The recipe is very similar to JZ's from Brewing Classic Styles with a few tweaks here and there (A little Crystal 40 and Columbus instead of Horizon). I'm also taking pictures for a future process post depicting just what steps I take in the brewery. Should be a good brew day!
