Notes:
Website says 60IBU - this recipe seems to be falling a bit short of that.
Listed recipe has OG 1.066 FG 1.011 - but this seems to require pretty high attenuation.

Notes: Brewed - 1/2/21
May have been a little too ambitious with this one, I didn't get nearly the efficiency that was calculated, and I don't think I can blame it all on too much water this time.
Hops are adjusted in recipe as per each package AA's
Used 3 liter starter and made a big blow-off mess. After 24 hours the krausen was spewing so violently out of the airlock that it blew the top off of the fermenter; twice.
Will update numbers when finished, at least four weeks
2/2/21 - UPDATE - FG of 1.011 for a whopping attenuation of 85%. Sugar primed keg, will wait 2+ weeks
Actual Results:
Total water: 11.5 gallons - would lessen to 10.75 - 11
Pre-boil volume: 8.25 gallons - would lesson to 7.75
Ending kettle volume: 7 gallons - would lessen to 6.5
Boil time: 90 min
Efficiency: 67%
OG: 1.080
FG: 1.011
ABV: 9.1%
Attenuation: 85%
IBU's: 110
SRM: 7.9

Notes: Target Pre-Boil Volume: 5 gal
Target Post-Boil Volume: 3 gal
Target Post-Boil Gravity: 1.269
Actual Pre-Boil gravity at 5 gallons: 1.116, estimated post-boil wort gravity: 1.193
(probably didn't use enough corn sugar, weight measurement was skewed)
Mash with:
1/2 tsp Calcium Chloride
1 tsp Epsom Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
Boil:
- mix all boil hops together (6 oz) and split into 24 equal size additions of .25 oz each
- add one hop addition every 5 minutes during boil (measurements in ingredients set at 1 hr, average time in boil)
- remove 1 pint wort (@1.193), mix with 2 pints water and make starter (@1.064) for WLP099
- mix 3 Qts wort (@1.193) with 1 gallon water for primary (@1.083)
***Use plastic fermenter with lid to allow for easy wort/hop additions***
- pitch 1056
- put remaining ~2 gallons wort (@1.193) in sanitized container, refrigerate
Primary Fermentation:
- Wort addition
----- once fermentation starts, perform wort addition every 12 hours for 8.5 days (17 additions):
-------- add 2 cups from reserved wort using sanitized measuring cup
----- *** monitor gravity of primary to check for slowing ***
- On addition 10, add high gravity yeast starter
- Add oxygen daily (evening) for 4 days. Stir wort vigorously with mash paddle.
Secondary Fermentation:
- Transfer to secondary after 10 days
Dry Hop (secondary only):
- mix dry hops together and divide into 28 equal portions
- add 1 portion daily (evening) for 28 days
Bottle:
- bottle after 28 days in secondary
- 12 oz bottles
- measure gravity before bottling: G
- bottle with:
2.5 - ( (G - FG) * 1.6 * 10^4 ) / 11
ounces of corn sugar
Expected volumes CO2 with no additional sugar:
678 * ( G - FG ) + 0.9
Total expected effective OG: 1.136
ACTUALS:
- OG at beginning of primary: 1.075
- Effective OG: 1.153
- Starting with addition 5, added .19 lbs corn sugar for next 6 additions, then .38 lbs for following 3 additions
- added 099 with addition 7
- 10 total wort additions, 13 total additions
- dry hopped with additions 11 to 22
- racked evening after final dry hop addition (time 23, day 11.5)
- gravity at time 8: 1.058, at time 10: 1.070, at time 23: 1.042 |

Notes: How to make video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/G2pZ12ILbfo
I wasn't sure how to indicate a step mash in BrewersFriend so I am writing it here.
The first rest is a rest for 20 minutes a little under 128 °F. Then slowly heat to 151 °F. I did this via a RIMS tube. This allowed us to us to have mini rests through the different temperature zones because it is was only heating 1 °F every 2 minutes or so.
If you don't have a RIMS tube or want to avoid step mashing in general, you can just mash in at 151 °F. Today's malts are so modified you will probably see little difference if at all. More information about step mashing can be found at https://byo.com/article/the-science-of-step-mashing/
