Notes

BIAB.

Started with Chippewa Springs bottled spring water and adjusted with salts from there.

Strike temperature 163°F.

Gigawort mash and boil.

Equipment limitations on boil volume (4 gal max) so need to do a partial boil to get a 5 gallon batch.

Top up 3.5 gallons to 5 gallons or target OG, whichever is less.

Added dry yeast directly to wort.

1 week primary, 1 week secondary with dry hops in mesh tube.

Hops swelled and filled tube so I don't know how much flavor and aroma was actually extracted in the beer.
