Notes

60-minute mash at 154°F. Mash out at 170°F.

60-minute boil. 1/2 oz hops at start and another 1/2 oz at 10 min before end of boil.

Ferment at 65°F to target ABV then increase the temperature to 75°F. Keep here for a day or so then transfer to secondary/chiller.

Cellar chill at 55°F for a week or two then cold crash at 34°F for a few days.

Original recipe contained 8lbs of MO. 1.056 OG

Entered it in the local club comp and got 2nd place. The feedback received was it needed less esters, most likely due to higher ABV. Otherwise super solid beer. Lowering next batch to 6lbs MO.
