batch sparged, recirculated and collected 15.5 gallon of 1.036 preboil

whirlpool 5 minute then collected to 2 Brew buckets as transfer buckets, 11.5 gallons total in fermenter. dumped in at 66F and set to 56F. After trub collector settled, closed valve. accidentally loosened valve clamp and had some spillage but quickly replaced avoiding a huge disaster.
Pitched at 56F the seven fully swollen smack packs that i smacked on Friday 12/8/17around 12am. Then set to 58F
Monday morning 1030am bubbling at blow off bucket. 58*F. Will plan to ferment at 58 and check SG on Wednesday.
Wednesday 11am pulled sample to check SG. (day 3 @ 58F). There is very vigorous fermentation and foam so getting an accurate SG is not really possible. Tomorrow will consider increasing to 68 to finish out.
Thursday 12/14/ 10:55am. SG is about 1.014-1.016 (hard to exact due to foam and active fermentation.) Set at 68 to let rise up and finish out.
at 12:30pm up to 61.2F
at 1:49pm up to 63.7F
at 2:36 65.2F
at 3:40pm 68F
