Notes

Steep Caramunich 20 ' 155 deg water and sparge into water for boil.. Made a yeast starter 12 hours before brewing. Add dry malt w/ an immersion blender when water was about 165 degrees, and add corn sugar - 1st hops. Used Amarillo just to raise the IBU a little was what else I had on hand, the Hallertau had a very low alpha acid %. Staggered hops. Add spices + I moss as indicated. Star of Anise - added three of the "arms" to be conservative - just part of a full "star". Coriander seed crushed w/ Rolling pin. For honey - mixed in 100 degF water and added after wort after it cooled to 100 deg or lower. Add yeast starter when wort at 72 deg F.
Brewers Friend estimated an original SG of 1.063 - used my refractometer - 1.068 S.G
