Notes

Mash Profile
Mash @ 152* for 60 minutes. We mashed thin at 1.8qt/lb.

Notes

Adjusted OG is 1056 (for efficiency calculations)

Grain to glass in 7 weeks. Competiton entries (first round) were 8 weeks old. Carbed to 2.7 volumes of CO2. We underpitched by about 20% as to stress the yeast a little for more ester production.

Candi Sugar on the cold side?
