Notes

Use 3 liquid yeast packages. Mash at 152° Increase the pre-boil volume as needed to allow a 90 minute boil, which will help reduce DMS in the beer.

DRINKABILITY: Has been good. Everyone has liked it.

This is brewed at the original recipe from Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer. Page 196.

Pre-Boil Gravity expected: 1.069 (16.9°P)
OG: 1.068 (12.0°P) 03/15/15 Pitched
FG: 1.016 (2.5°P) 03/27/15 Kegged
Fermented at 62° for 8 days. Raised to 64° for two days. Last day lowered to 45° forced conditioned to clarify.


Used a sprange system from Jim's equipment. Boiled 4 gallons and sparge to 6 gallons total.
Errors found in digital temperature probe. Found to be 15° off. New ThermoWorks ordered. Had to add 1.5 lbs of DME to drive OG to 1.068. Poor efficiency due to under temperature conversion.
