You can do either. I've done both. Frankly, the last time I brewed it, I filtered it (5-micron "rough" polish) and really like that. But bottle-conditioning works quite well.
I am going to try this out once I get the maze. Can u get a stuck sparge with too much of this stuff? Also I am going to try it with American loger. Different hops too. So probly a totally different beer. I will mess with the water too
