Should yield more yeast volume, and less work, than only from secondary which needs a feeding of the yeast to get up to pitch volume.
7/13/2020 10:17 PM over 5 years ago	+34	Other	1.012		3 °C	7/27/2020 10:18 PM over 5 years ago	Cold crashed today.

Hitting DIPA style for sure but a little more FG would probably help. Must experiment with some under modified to help boost FG.

11/24/2020 9:43 PM over 5 years ago	+168	Tasting Note				11/24/2020 9:43 PM over 5 years ago	This is a real Double IPA. What I like is that its not a grapefruit bomb. It is less sweet than the commercial brewers, so it is more thirst quenching. It is just perfectly bitter.
1/12/2021 3:27 AM over 5 years ago	+217	Tasting Note				1/12/2021 3:27 AM over 5 years ago	Double CA is really hitting its stride now. The alcohol, hops, aroma are all balanced out now. Really hard to drink slow.

Notes

Yeast is Escarpment Cali from Guelph, ON.
2 packets used due to high gravity.

Robobrew has a 6 kg limit on it capacity. I mashed in a secondary cooler because I could not fit the malt in. I also sparged with an additional 10 litres. Used the Blichmann for the boil to get down to 23 litres.
