Notes

1-8-2022 ### I originally wanted L 17 Harvest but they didn't have any at the store. Still unsure how I will do the coffee, I'm a little afraid of pulling in a pepper flavor here so really going to do some more reading on coffee adds before adding it.
Went with Global on the first round

5-7-2022 This round only have 34/70 on hand to will use that on this one.


6-20-2022 -- This round I droped Saaz from 2 oz to 1 oz. I think to much bitterness for some with the coffee.
