Notes

Brewed on 8/21/2021 via BIAB Method

Total Mash vol = 11 gallons @ 154 degrees F for 60 minutes, strike temp = 160 degrees F

Going to do a split batch of 5 gallons with W-34/70 and 3 gallons with S-23 that was harvested from Pre Pro Mexico lager. Both are fermentis dry yeast.

SG = 9.5 gallons @ 1.048 g/L (hydrometer method).
FG = 8 gallons @ 1.055 g/L (hydrometer).

The dark munich malt I used must have been darker than 10 degrees lovibond because the color is closer in color to an Octoberfest Marzen. I would suspect the malt was dark munich from briess which is 30 lovibond.

On Sunday 8-29-21 the W34-70 beer was 1.021 g/l and the S-23 was 1.019 g/l. Thermostat said 59 degrees F, but thermo pen said 61 degrees F

Both beers kegged on 9/9/10. 34/70 beer FG = 7.2 Brix = 1.013 g/l after correction. S-23 beer was 1.014 g/L.
