Notes

Add the honey & table sugar at flameout.

Add grapefruit rind and brown sugar 60 hours into fermentation - 4oz of brown sugar adds ~0.002 gravity points to 5 gallons. 1lb of red grapefruit adds .46 gravity points which is equal to 1.00046, so negligible. Strictly for flavor.

Took Final Gravity reading on 6/17, came in at 1.014. OG was 1.090 so ABV should be around 10%. 83% attenuation at that OG. I got way more sugar in the original mash than I wanted. This will be a VERY strong beer.
