Notes

2/3 thick decoction = Approx 3.5 to 4.0 gal wet grain. Pulled decoction mash and set aside after the 154rest. Heated main mash to 160 and then dealt w/ decoction.

Yeast Blend: Decanted 2nd Gen WLP838 slurry from a 24hr starter for about 600-700B cells. Added three activated WY2308 packs for insurance.

2nd: 2019 Indiana Brewers Cup vs 21 entries (3 months after brewday)

3rd: 2019 Dixie Cup vs 17 entries (6 months after brewday)

This beer peaked at about 4 months.
