I brewed today!

Brewday from hell today. 1st - my mash ph was way low. I had to scramble to fix that. 2nd - I forgot to shut the flame off on the kettle and the mash temp got up to 170F. I pulled off a quarter or so and then added cold water to bring the temp down. Of course I was low on the OG. To bring this home, I probably overpitched the batch. I think it will be beer.....

I brewed Josh's Smiddicks today. It was sunny, 50°F (10°C), and I could sit away from the wind, so it was t-shirt day! Once the boil started, I just sat there in the sun listening to an Experimental Brewing podcast. If I could just get someone to do the cleanup, it would be a perfect day.

50 is sleeves if next to the burner LOL. Away, probably two layers or at least a denim jacket:) It was about 50 something when I got home from the brewery last night. I didn't last very long outside. Today would have been a wonderful day to brew. It got up into the low 80s
