Notes
1.035 at start of kettle souring. pH around 5.5. tossed in a few ml more lactic acid.
+2 days into kettle souring, PH around 4.3. small pellicle bits starting to form. the garage probably isn't warm enough for optimal temps, so i may need to let this go for a couple more days. will check PH again tomorrow.
+4 days, pH 3.5. gravity at 1.035 for start of boil. chiller only got the wort down to 90 degrees. put in fermentation chamber to cool down to at least 65 before I pitch. adjusted OG is 1.39. lower than I wanted, not sure what happened. maybe I didn't boil off enough or put too much water. need to get a graduated pitcher and check sight glass markers. it's possible all the boil particulates are throwing off my refractometer too...
+9 days, pH 3.4, gravity at 1.020. taste is GREAT!
+14 days, added hopsThis Recipe Has Not Been Rated
