No blowtie for first 2-3 days
Blowtie attached and set to ~10psi
DRY HOP
Dry Hop on Day 4/5 (within 10 points of FG)
Day 8 - Took sample, gravity at 1.011 (~77% attenuation), raised FC to 22 degrees, will start cold crash in 24 hours, attach gas to serving pressure.
Day 11 - Add 2 dry hop to keg, transfer to keg
STARTER NOTES
==============
White Labs London Fog Ale WLP067 (Mf Date: June 13 2019)
Built 3L starter with 345g of DME
