Notes

Used about 7lbs of Butternut Squash, sprinkled liberally with brown sugar and baked at 375 for 2 hrs (reduce this to 1-1.5 hrs). Yielded 2.5 lbs of squash.

Mash 155
Carb to 2.3-2.4 vol CO2
If needed, add a bit more spices to the secondary

Brewed 9/28/22, my boil off rate was way higher than expected, yielded 1.069 OG at 5.5 gal
