Notes

Buy 2 packs of Danstar Nottingham dry yeast.

Phoenix is said to have Molasses/Chocolate/Spicy characteristics.

Mash in at 2.5 gallons of water.

Sparge with 2 gallons of water warmed to 170 degrees. This should bring the boil water level to something between 4 and 4.5 gallons.

Boil with an open lid again and a nice roiling boil like last time.

** This method worked great! Originally set for 63% conversion 1.051 OG but instead hit 77% conversion and a 1.062 OG! :)
