<<TableOfContents>>

== Start 'er Up ==

 * Prepare yeast if starter was not made
 * Produce caffeine
 * Get any dishes &c out of the way before starting
 * Run dishwasher unless it is really empty
   * Unload once it is finished so that any new dishes can get out of
     the way immediately
 * Measure first bucket of mash water (and cover)

== Mash ==

 * set up propane burner
 * treat first mash water
   * Easiest to measure in 5 gal bucket and treat in keg-kettle on the
     propane burner
 * heat first mash water in keg-kettle
 * clean (''with cold water'') mash tun and assemble manifold
 * set up mash tun on rack (positioned so that it can drain into
   kettle on the primary burner)
 * mash in
   * ''REMEMBER ANY CHALK OR PH BUFFER''

== Interlude ==

 * Acquire any missing ice/supplies
   * i.e. beer, food
 * Perhaps get a few wort production tasks out of the way if time
   permits (-> more time for beer later)

== Lauter ==

 * if 'mashing out':
   * heat top up water
   * top up

 * transfer any remaining water into secondary kettle

 * vorlauf
 * drain mash tun into keg-kettle

== Batch Sparge ==

 * heat sparge water in secondary kettle
 * batch sparge
 * begin heating first runnings on primary burner

== Second Lauter ==

 * vorlauf
 * drain into keg-kettle on burner

 * Dump spent grains into grain pile
 * Break down manifold and rinse
   * Note: do not break down the ends, just the lateral poles
 * Hose out mash tun
 * Flush silicone hose with hot water (sink hose)
 * Flush ball valve with hot water (sink hose)
 * Leave to dry (inside!)

== Wort Science ==

 * Take and crash cool gravity sample
   * Use measuring cup! Volume: ???mL (FIRST TIME: MEASURE CAPACITY OF
     TUBE) # putting hot wort into the tube is making it fracture
 * Measure initial volume
 * Measure gravity
 * Calculate efficiency &c
   * Taste!
 * Clean sample equipment

== Wort! ==

 * prepare wort salts
 * prepare hop additions
 * prepare yeast nutrients and irish moss

 * deal with hot break
 * add first hops and salts
 * sit back and make beer

== Crash Cool ==

 * sanitize 
   * wort chiller
   * Stirring spoon
   * Thermometer

 * prepare ice and drainage buckets
 * assemble pump system

 * @T-15m put wort chiller into wort

 * Crash!

 * Clean wort chiller

== Rack ==

 * Sanitize
   * Racking Cane
   * Tee
   * Venturi Tube
   * Thief
   * Airlocks
   * Bunges
 * Shake up fermenters with star san

 * Whirlpool wort
 * Assemble and re-sanitize racking hoses
 * Dump starsan from fermenters
 * Rack beer!
 * Seal fermenters

== Begin Fermentation ==

 * Move fermenters into fridge
 * Set temperature control

== Clean Up ==

 * Clean kettle
   * Dump crap out
   * Rinse with hose
   * Fill (partially) with hot water + oxyclean
   * Scrub
   * Dump (deck!)
   * Rinse again (with sink water!)
   * Place to dry on towel

 * Double check mash tun is completely clean

 * Disassemble pump system
   * Extract reusable ice containers (into kitchen for cleaning)
   * Turn pump upside down to drain remaining water
     * Put pump into utility room (hanging hose over wall hook)
   * Dump cold water bucket
   * Dump hot water bucket when finished using for cleaning water

 * Flush siphon hose + venturi + tree + cane with hot water
 * Clean hose / racking cane
 * HANG SIPHON HOSE FROM UTILITY ROOM HOOKS TO DRY
   * Otherwise, mold grows in them

 * Extra cleaning
  * Put any dry brewing items back into their boxes
  * Check brewing boxes for general organization
  * Put brewing supplies back into utility room
  * Collect beer bottles &c left around from brewing
  * Collect used brewing towels
 
 * Mop kitchen (Clinton, after everyone goes home of course)
