Notes

Last time I had a quart of slurry which topped it off to about 5.75 gal. Might want to sparge an extra quart (e.g. 27 vs 26). Maybe adjust the hops too. Noble Hops. Might remove the caramunich (i reduced it to .25lb), maybe add caravienna? Might not be to style but my others had caramunich... Maybe use fuggles vs another one.
