Notes

Add ~3 mL of Hop Shots at 60 min.

BREW DAY: 19-AUG-18
Didn't boil vigorously enough and ended with right at 6 gallon of wort, FG = 1.059, so extraction efficiency was increased.

Oxygenated for 45 sec after chilling to around 90F, then let ferm fridge bring down to low 50Fs overnight.

4L of starter cold crashed to ~600mL and pitched at 6AM on 20AUG-18.

Ferm schedule:
1.) 51F for 5 days (make sure at least 50% attenuation has occurred, so below 1.040).
2.) Ramp up to 67F for remainder of ferm time.
3) Slowly ramp back down to 32F over several days (consider adding gelatin around 50F)

UPDATE 24-AUG-18:
After 4 days, beer is at 1.040 gravity (50% to FG is ~1.038), tonight start ramping up to 67F (3 deg every 12 hr) for remainder of fermentation.
