Kettle size: 20
Trub: 1.375gal = 5.5qt = 4.5qt kettle loss + 1qt line loss
Boil off rate: 1.0
Grain absorption: 0.07

2.04qt = 1.93L

> Oxygenate the chilled wort to a level of 14 ppm dissolved oxygen. Given the high starting gravity, a second dose to 14 ppm is recommended approximately 12-18 hours after the yeast has been pitched.

> Pitch yeast and ferment at 66-68F until about 6.6P, then raise to 70-72F

> Add one ounce of American medium toast oak cubes per 5 gallons to brite tank. You may optionally soak the oak cubes in bourbon for a few weeks prior to use. Rack beer on top of oak and steep for ~21 days at room temperature.
