Yeast harvested from the cake of a second batch of the Jalepeno IPA transferred to secondary only two days prior. Yeast was mixed in 1 gallon carboy with minimal mixing/shaking for aeration. Starter was made with 2 cups of Pilsner DME and 1/8 tsp of wyeast yeast nutrient. |

After 60 min mash was complete the temperature had dropped from 156°F at dough in to 145°F (a couple degrees hotter at bottom and cooler at the top so temp was averaged to 145°F).
The runnings, even after vourloff, were very cloudy and dark brown in color.
The mash absorbed a lot of water, 8-9 gallons including original dough in water, and was added in 3 stages. About 5.5 gallons was obtained before boil and a sample was sequestered to fridge to cool and take the above reading which was then thrown away instead of added back to wort because by the time it cooled down the wort was already chilled. |

The beer was very foamy when poured into fermenter with and as a consequence it took 3-4 hours to get it in and the yeast pitched but after this the blow-off hose was attached, and apartment temperature ranged between 70°F and 72°F. |
