Taste Notes
preboil gravity = 14.1 brix (1.058)
starting gravity (end of boil) = 16.7 brix (1.069)
pitch yeast from starter beer (~400 billion cells) at 17.1C and then warmed to 19C
airlock action within 3 hours
raised temp to 19.5C - 12 hours after pitch
raised temp to 20C - 24 hours after ptich
raised temp to 20.5C - 48 hours after pitch
added 11.2oz Corn Sugar (with a little bit of yeast nutrient and 1 cup water) added at the end of primary (72 hours after pitch 20.5C and ~ 9 brix (1.015))
This raised theoretical starting gravity from 16.7 brix (1.068) to 17.8 brix (1.074)
gravity at 100 hours from pitch ~8brix (1.006) rasied to 22C
