Notes: Modern Times - Fortunate Islands clone

https://www.brewersfriend.com/mash-chemistry-and-brewing-water-calculator/?id=Z4XL4Z0

Ferment 64F for four to five days, bump to 68F till fermentation completes.
-----------------------
Notes for future brews:
(lower the amount of GP) Try with 3 lb Golden promise and 3 lb pale malt
Raise the Mash temp 152-154
Try WLP095 or WLP001
----------------
Was able to compare to a can of Fortunate Islands. The actual fortunate islands from the can was definitely more bitter.
