Notes

Add 1 lb cane sugar boiled in about 500ml water and then cooled. Do this after 48-72hrs after fermentation has begun.

If fermented about 75 degrees the yeast should take it down to 1.002

Bottled 11/13. used a whole cup table sugar to reach a volume of 3.3vol.


Opened 1st bottle 12/19.
Slightly overcarbed, but subdues in a little while. Very champagne carbonation and a thick solid 1 inch white head in a tulip. Came out a little lighter colorwise, but a very warm color nonetheless.

Let it warm up to around 40, pretty bittey and clean. can taste the two row predominatley.
Let it warm up to 48 and magic happened. Flavors blend more, lemon pops up, earthy/tobacco flavors pop up,the yeast Phenols really shine through.

Goal was to create a nice farmy beer that wont leave me face down in the pig slop after 3 or 4 glasses. This one fits the bill.

Plus 3711 is an awesome yeast that could ferment an old sweaty gym shirt. This beer went from 1.060 to 1.001 at 70 degrees.
