Taste Notes

Best tasting brew yet. Dry and crisp with a nice subtle hop finish in the background, seriously could win contest but for a slight lack of clarity/chill haze. will try again but substiture the flaked barley, maybe try different mash profile to get effects of the flaked Barley?

Notes

TIME TO BREW: 7 hrs Use a 90-minute boil. First temp step was a bit all over the place. Ph at about 5.0 from what I could tell with shitty strips Used about 8.5 Gallons water, Sparged to 7 in the boil pot and draining cooler completely in the process Pre-Boil Gravity 1.042 Post boil gravity 1.052 Poured 4.5 gallons into fermenter and then could not settle out any more trub, put remaining 1 G into fridge overnight and was able to settle out enough to next AM fill fermentor to the 5 gallon line Pitched at 58 F initial Set Point at 56 (Yeast fermentation reccomendation is 50 - 55) Fermentation begining after 17 hours 1.018 after 8 days Primary done at 8 Days, Turned off temp control for Diacetyl rest for three days, modified fermentation schedule accordingly Started lagering by crashing it down to 40 degrees right after transfer, drift it down a degree a day to 34
