Notes

I brewed this as an extract brew with great results and now converted it to all grain. I blew my OG as I over measured the batch sparge. Ended up with about 8 gal pre boil and missed my OG 1.042. I'll chalk this one up as a lesson and I'm sure it will drink fine. If anyone brew's this recipe, let me know how it goes.

OG 1.042
FG 1.008
ABV 4.45%
