Notes

Brewed 12/09/21. 16.5 L water, 2 g CaCl2, added 1.5 ml lactic acid, mash pH 5.2. Rest at 135 10 minutes, then raise to 144 F and pull decoction. Return decoction and rest at 152 F for 15', then raise to 170 F for mash out. Sparge with water, 3 g CaCl2, 1 ml lactic acid, pH 5.5. Cool to 65 F and pitch, 2.5 L slurry restarted with 0.5 L on brew day. Ferment at 50 F.

1/10/22. Note that temp has dropped to mid-40's due to cold snap. Remove from keg fridge and allow temp to rise to 65 F for 24 hours, then place back in garage at 52 F. Gravity 1.018, sample didn't ferment out further. Pitched 500 ml of actively fermenting yeast, brought back to 65 F for two days, then placed back in keg fridge. Keg kept in 45 - 48 F range. Carbonation slowly taking place; gravity 1.017 on 1/27/22. Dropped temp to near 32 F. Sample taken 03/11/22 shows gravity 1.017.
