Notes

308g DME in 3L starter

1/25/16 update FG 1.013 so ABV is 5.7 after discounting the low ABV starter. Color is good
but there is a dryness to it,somewhat astringent. Doubt it is tannins, doubt that my batch sparge ph was high since it was RO water and the main mash was 5.4. Perhaps it is the pale chocolate malt or brown malt. It's young but I'm leaning toward the gypsum, which I may decrease next time, now to add some more chloride NaCl to my glass and see it's affect. Well the bitterness is still main stage but the body is rounder and so we'll see what age will give it. Is it possible the starter was too bitter? 15 min hops in that.

4/4/16 Excellent subtle nut brown, bitterness has faded, has improved since I decreased the carbonation to appropriate levels. I would leave out the brown malt next time and increase the other specialty malts & perhaps leave out the late hopping. I entered this into the state fair.
