Notes

This was my first all grain that I did and then I repeated it with my neighbor's hops. It came out great and he wanted me to brew him a batch, so that is when I entered this into Brewers Friend.

This is my sixth time using this basic recipe. I made a snapshot as I changed the brand of grains and the hops I am using.
