Taste Notes

10-17-13 Took gravity reading at1.013. Sample has a mellow roasty aroma, no hop aroma. Flavor taste like a very weak chocolate coffee with just a very slight hint of alcohol warming. Body seems to be on the light/medium side.

No activity at 7:30 PM, still 68 deg. 10-13-13 7:15 AM. Water temp is 66.6 deg. Good activity in airlock. Continuos bubbles 11:45 AM. Water temp is 67.1 deg. Krausen is now in airlock. 10:00 PM. Water temp is 70.8 deg. Still vigorous activity in airlock. 10-14-13 6:30AM. Water temp is 68.7 deg. Activity still good but can tell it has slowed overnight. 4:35 PM. Water temp is 70.8 deg. Activity still good. 10-15-13 6:45 AM. Water temp is 68.8 deg. Activity has slowed way down. 4:40 PM. Water temp is 69.8 deg. Very slow but still bubbling in airlock. 10-16-13 6:40 AM.
