Notes

05-14-2012: Monday - Bubbling away since Saturday night. Temps have been between 68 and 70F. 05-12-2012: First time using my grain mill. I have 2# from MDHB as a basis. They told me their gap was 45. I tried 45 and it was too fine. Set mine to 48 and it is close to MDHB but is a finer crush. I was a bit concerned it might be too fine and cause a stuck sparge. Everything was fine. Might have seen slightly more finer particals in the initial runnings. All in all, everything is good. I also have a new manifold in my mash tun. I now have a round braided hose connected to a compression T fitting. It worked great. Also first time not using DME to make my starter. Instead I used the grain I used to calibrate my mill. I made a 1 gallon starter to use for this and the SN Porter which is getting brewed tomorrow. It seemed to work okay but the color was kind of grey. Not sure if that was from the oils on the mill rollers or not.

Made a five gallon batch, OG 1.062 FG 1.014. Delicious. My buddies call this our "everyday drinkable stout" because it is just a really good balanced stout.

Made a 5 gallon batch. OG 1.062, FG 1.018. tastes great, could have kept it fermenting longer but needed to keg it for a bachelor party. Overall a great basic stout.
