Notes

2/11/18:
Brew day. Squeezed the crap out of the bag with my body weight and got almost .8 gallons out. Had to add .5 gallons to the end of the boil to make 5 gallons into the fermenter. OG = 1.076

2/12/18:
4pm: Pitched 2 packs of re-hydrated yeast @ 50°F (10°C) and immediately raised temp to 53.6°F (12°C).

2/14/18:
Finally noticed some bubbles around 3pm.

2/21/18:
Raised temp to 18°C over the next few days.

2/26/18:
Began lowering temp as low as possible to lager until a free keg opens up.

4/10/18:
Finally got a free keg to transfer to. FG = , forced carb at 30psi for 4 days.

4/14/18:
Lowered to 10psi
