Fermentation

Cooled the beer down to 70F and add 1 package WLP800 with starter. We fermented at 53F for two weeks. We then bumped the temperature up to 70F for about 10 days to complete a diacetyl rest. We smelled and visually inspected the beer, letting it rest until all traces of diacetyl were gone and yeast activity (bubbling) had ceased.
