Notes

Brewed 4/26/15. Strike water was about 170/171F. Hit about 153F on the dough in and I recirculated about 1.5 gal to get it down to 152F. pH was 5.1 which is way lower than the predicted 5.5 in brew'n water. Not sure why that might be but the acid malt probably wasn't that necessary. Kettle efficiency is 81% which is a little lower than normal. Boil was pretty vigerous and I ended up with probably about 5.5gals in the fermenter. Could have slowed it or collected about 8.5gals in the kettle. Topped off with a little bit of water. Efficiency was pretty good and within normal range. Pitching temp was a little high about 71F so I pitched and cooled it down to 67F. 4/27 beer has been sitting at 67F with icing throughout the day. 4/28 temp has been about 67/68 all day. 4/29 temp had drifted up to about 69F so I let it stay there. Dry Hopped 5/8/15. Kegged 5/17/14. Ended up dry hopping for a bit longer than the planned 7 days.
