Notes

Used two packs of US-05 and fermented in keg. Fermentation never showed itself through the blowoff tube, so I threw a pack of US-04 in a week after brew day. Still no signs of fermentation. The cause of this was later determined to be a leak at the keg's lid.
Cold crashed in keg for five days, dumped yeast, then transferred to serving keg to carb for a week.
This first batch was very orangey, and the coriander seed didn't come through as much as I'd have thought. The extra yeast pitched didn't really seem to have an impact on flavor. All-around, a very tasty brew to have around in the fall.
