Notes

Check pre-boil gravity on first runnings and recirculate into mash tun if it needs to be raised. Hops are timed into the boil. For initial brewing, yeast should be pitched at top end of acceptable temperature range (74-78). Ferment at lower temperature limit of yeast used. With the Czech yeast that temperature is 50 degrees. Dry hop for the final seven days of aging period. After 2 weeks, 6.5 gal. Carbouys were 1.019 & 1.020. Small car boy have not fully fermented after 2 weeks. Gravity was 1.030, but after 3 more days of fermenting was at 1.019. After diacetyl rest on 5/3, gravity on one cb was 1.010 and the second was 1.016. The gravity on the small cb after diacetyl rest was 1.011. Small cb put back in freezer on 5/6.
