Notes
Recipe from Central Street Farmhouse in Bangor, Maine
2015-04-01:
Temps held steady at 68ºF so far and transfered to secondary. SG is 1.015@70.9 or 1.016. (I measured 1.031 through the refractometer which just isn't right. Will have to check on it.)
2015-04-15:
SG is 1.013@66.8ºF or 1.014 - OK. Moving from the warmer shop back into the brewery where temps are currently high but I'm turning the heat down to 60ºF.
2015-04-21:
Using 3.75 oz of corn sugar for priming today. At 60ºF that should be about 2.4 volumes CO2.
1.014 @ 60.6ºF for FG of 1.014.
We filled 49 12oz bottles plus the better part of one (10 oz) for 598 oz or 4.67 gal.
Taste is good, mildly roasty, a touch sweet.This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
