Notes
  • add spices with 5 minutes left in boil
  • heat pumpkin with strike water, add in mash
  • add mollases after mash, before boil


    ***Rice Hulls not available so kept canned pumpkin in nylon boiling bag

  • Primary Fermentation way too hot; still over 80F 24 hours after pitching - will leave in primary longer

  • OG: 1.064 @ 84F => 1.066
  • Efficiency: 69%
