Notes

Got the boil horribly wrong!
First time using the Robobrew. Didn't set elements right and did not establish a rolling boil.
Had at least one boil over and "boil" went for an extra 30 mins to achieve adequate boil off.

Also, this was an undersize batch.

Surprisingly, full bodied beer with good bitterness and mouth feel. Unfortunately, will be unrepeatable given boil events!
