Notes

Second Update: did some taste tests and some internet research to bring this one in juuusssssttt a bit closer to what I'm looking for.

Let it work undisturbed for at least 10-14 days. Cold crash (40 or below) for two days (add gelatin if you wish) . Keg, force carb at 25 - 30 lbs for two days, bleed off pressure and set to your serving pressure. Enjoy!

Second Notes: Changed the hops up for this batch. Got an excellent mash, I finally have a grain mill and ran my grain through for a second time. Also, did a 5 gallon mash vs 7.5 gallon. Started boil at 4.25 gallons, when the boil was done added 2.25 gallons fresh chilled water (bottled, so it was safe) to assist with bringing wort to pitch temp, OG (post aeration) came in at 1.054, so I think my little experiment may have worked. Will see when fermentation is complete.
