Notes

Brew day: 7/12/21
Mashed in at 155 for 30
Mashed for 30 more at 154
Mashed and recirculated for 30 at 155
End mash gravity was 1.055, not the 1.066 brewers friend expects although I haven’t added the candi yet!
Mash got stuck after my 90 so raked it
OG of 1.064 in the kettle with the sugar added. Also at 12.75 gallons pre boil.
Ended up at 1.066 OG post boil, not bad
Used 2 kinds of yeast, white labs ccc: one in each carboy and split a Wyeast ccc between the two
Finished at 1.000 for a 8.66% beer.

That's damn tasty beer! Nailed the style and flavor profile i was looking for. Need to tap that second keg to see how it's doing.

Did a beer off with second keg and a bottle of Westy double and this tasted better. Great recipe!

Added 0.5 Tbs of lactic acid
