Notes

revised fourth attempt at high gravity brew.
Use of Armuchee spring water again
Returned to prepping dry yeast 24 hours in advance of brew.
BeerSmith article notes that high gravity beers require attention to:
-Water required vs mash tun capacity - check
-High OG beers take much longer to ferment, like two months or more - Not planning to break open a bottle until holiday season 2020
Process notes:
Prepping dry yeast the night before
Anticipate use of glycol chiller with conical to lager the beer
Brew to be bottle conditioned and bottled
