	add irish moss per. instructions on package after heat is shut off and before cooling add honey- if the honey is added wile still boiling it can harm the flavor. stir well then cool to around 60-80deg f.

Yeast:	use one qt. of either california ale yeast or lauger yeast both will work,It depends on the availabe temps.
Log:	with ale yeast ferment around 67deg with lauger yeast shoot for about 50deg on primary and secondary. both cycles run about a week then bottle for two to three weeks try breaking with tradition and using clear bottles, the different colors get interesting.(see carbonation section)
Carbonation:	2.6 volumes	Corn Sugar: 8.92 oz. for 10.0 gallons @ 63°F
	use one jolly rancher per 12oz bottle. be creative,and have some fun- try some of every flavor. don't lable them and when they are ready see who can identify which flavor is which. Loads of fun at brew club meetings or parties
Tasting:	have fun
