Notes

Inspired from Brewing Classic Styles, American Pale Ale Recipe (with different grain and hops...)

Measure water for better calculations next time. Avoid too much wort in the end, assume crap efficiency to reduce boil time. Mash volumes and temps are guesses.

Hops, using 75% utilization since they are old hops.
Used google AI for hop schedule.
~24 initial bittering IBU
