Notes

Lavender is added at flameout.

Left in fermenter for 2 weeks by accident. This had no negative effects and may have added to the lavender nose.

Water notes: Use R.O. water. Add 1 tsp of calcium chloride dihydrate (what your LHBS sells) to each 5 gallons of water treated. Add 2% Acidulated (sauermalz) to the grist.
