Notes

Second attempt at high gravity brew.
Using Imperial Global yeast this time to increase yeast cells and eliminate slurry prep
Will require fermentation in keezer using carboys, then transfer to conical for secondary.
Lucked out and found dry lager yeast at Muskedines.
BeerSmith article notes that high gravity beers require attention to:
-Water required vs mash tun capacity - check
-Yeast (osmotic) shock from high OG requires dry yeast to be hydrated with wort (preferably) before the pitch -
-High OG beers take much longer to ferment, like two months or more - Theoretically June to tap...
