Notes

A nice , easy, quaff-able ale to test out my new Chugger Pump set up. I made a starter with two smack packs of nearly out-dated WY1056. Both swelled up nicely and look to be quite viable after 36 hours on the stir plate - 5 liters, cold crashed for 18 hours and decanted.

*Update: Nailed my mash temp and water volumes by adding about 1/2 gallon to account for pump and hose losses. O.G.: 1.054.
