Notes

2L Starter:
DME Required: 205.4 g

10/12/2018 - Brew day. GF kept cutting out, so boil occured on the stove top. All wort and trub went into the fermenter. OG 1.060

10/13 - Pitched decanted starter. There is some question as to the yeast, as it was very dark when poured into the starter wort, and I never saw lots of activity in the starter. But lots of yeast at the bottom of the starter, so hopefully we're in good shape.

10/16 - 1.017. Raised temp in fermentation chamber to 80. It's cold in the house, so hoping temp rises to 70-72 at least.
