    I mashed at 152 F for the winning batch. This was the 3rd time I made it, some hop changes made a difference as well as the addition of the Wheat (head retention) and the Crystal 60 (I think). It is just a little sweeter than before, but I think it makes a difference it still finishes crisp and clean, but that little bit of sweetness helps.

    MAKE SURE YOU MAKE A YEAST STARTER!! IT WILL NOT BE AS GOOD WITHOUT IT!!
    Yeast starters are crucial
