Target Specifications:
Original Gravity: 1.066 (12.5° P)
Final Gravity: 1.019 (4.8° P)
ABV: 6.20%
IBU: 77
SRM: 8
Efficiency: 72
Target water as recipe: WATER =2 g/gal gypsum added to reverse osmosis (RO) water.
Directions:
Mash at 155°F (68°C) for 1 hour. Pitch yeast at 62°F (17°C) and allow to rise to 67°F (19°C) over 7 days. Ferment at 67°F (19°C) to terminal gravity. Crash to 42°F (6°C) and hold 10-14 days.
directions called for 7 day dry hop. I will try 48 hours at 68 degrees at the end of fermentation.
Brewed on 1/8/2022 - no sparge, no circulate.
This grain / water amount is the tippity top of what my system can handle in the grain pipe bag.
Misplaced recirc pump piece so I stirred and mashed 2 hours but no recirc during mash.
Efficiency was estimated at 63 percent for recipe but the actual OG was 56 percent.
Preboil amount was 7 gallons. into fermenter exactly at 5.5 gallons as recipe indicated.
dry hopped 1/15-1/18 at 66-68 degrees. (3 days)
kegged 1/18/2022.
FG: 1.009
