Notes

add 1 Servomyces tablet for yeast
trying low alcohol beer, added more % more roast barley etc. to get a bit more bite with the reduced alcohol.
Using a mash thickness of 2qt/lb which is quite thin. There is danger of extracting tannins on the fly sparge. Watch the SG on the last runnings and stop when SG is less than 1.008. Add hot liquor to BK if necessary to get to 22.5 gals. Ensure sparge and mash are pH 5.4
secondary fermentation 69 degrees,
