Added 1.2lb cane sugar before starting to heat to boil. Recirculated while heating to mix.
Matched target from brew calculator, but seems low for an OG of 1.085. Possible refractometer error but equivalent reading taken with temp corrected hydrometer. |

OG seems mathematically impossible, but does match target from brew day. Collected 0.5g extra wort, and had a little still left in the kettle.
Refractometer was reading 1.075 which seems more likely given pre-boil OG. Mid-Range hydrometer was well above the 1.070 mark so couldn't read that. The Wide-Range hydrometer read 1.084 at 60f. Will check for error on water later - Need to build refractometer correction table. |

Pitched a 1L vitality starter - no decanting. Gravity sample tasted very good but obviously very bitter. |
