Notes

Mark made the starter the usual way. Strike temp was 158, settled at 148 for 30m. Stirred while raising to 158 - took a little while. 30m. at 157. Mashed out at 168.

Sparged with 9g. of 170 deg. water for 90 min? First runnings at 1.074.

Boiled off a Lot of liquid and had a small boil over too, so we added another gallon of filtered water at the whirlpool. Ended up w/ about 10.5g. maybe a bit more in the fermenter, at ~75deg. Waited about 24 hours to pitch the yeast when it was down to 55. Fermented at 50 for 16 days. Gravity was 1.015 at that point so put it up to 68° for a couple days for a diacetyl rest. Then crashed to 35° for 6 days. Kegged on the 11th - bubbled and carbonated that day. FG was at 1.012. Into the fridge for 5 weeks!

Tapped after 5 weeks and it is good! A bit of fusels in the first glass or two. Now 3 weeks in and it is malty and smooth and lovely. Great carbonation - total winner!!

Absolutely fantastic to the end of the keg! Malty and refreshing, good balance - don't think I'd change anything!
