Taste Notes

Aug 4 Removed hop bag w Cascade O1oz. and tasted -- nice and malty, not sweet. Not much hop flavor but that has maybe not suffused through wert since I just pulled the bag. Will bottle w 4.4 oz corn sugar for nice and carbonated. Final gravity is 1.013 ABV 5.3%

Notes

Water treatment: adding 2 tsp of calcium carbonate to raise acidity. May have done more than I expected--ph test shows almost 7/neutral but that should drop with sparging. Noted some fermenting action last night at 8 pm. This morning going strong. Bathroom is cool at 70, but with door kept closed will drop to mid 60s. I will try to keep it there for most of fermentation. Did not get OG but I can safely call it 1.053 I think. Wort in bucket =5 gallons. Final gravity it 1.013 for abv of 5.3% Bottled 47 x 12oz.
