Notes

OG = 1.056
FG = 1.021
Tastes great before adding Chocolate, Cherry & Vanilla for kegging.
Made a starter with the Safale S-04, but would pitch 2 packs next time instead. Fully fermented, but not worth the extra work.
It's calculating water volumes wrong somehow, but 7G went into my Spiedel 50l fermenter with plenty of headroom. Used 4 drops of Fermcap-S to limit fermenter blow-off, but prob not needed.
