168 not hot enough to stabilize at 158, used long thermo too, initial mash was about 15 for 10 min then 160
R

Preboil 14gal 1.059 @80deg =1.060.
Preboil 2nd running without water 1.015 at 100deg=1.019, with water it's 1.015@84 =1.017

14 gallon to 11.25 with 90 min, need little more water next time. Maybe 15 gallons for 90 min

Og 1.073 @ 69 (1073) target was 1063 at 60% efficiency, got 70% and adjusted above

Did Hops wrong in 2nd runnings. Saaz went in at 60 and Nugget at 15

Bucket 1 = ag 550 brux (starter 2)
Bucket A = ag farmhouse (starter 1)
Bucket 3 = dme wlp 550
Bucket 2 = dme wlp 550

24hra a, 3, 2 bubbling slowly. 1 not bubbling but lid with thermometer has pinhole air leak. This batch will go into carboy for long term aging.
72hrs at 60, added heater between all with towels
Temp slowly raising, at 5.5 days temp is 65
6 days temp 67
1 gravity: 1020 - banana
A gravity: 1019 - hard to describe flavor, not banana, not funk
O
2: 1019 - less banana more clove/esters


Extract
1070@68
Bucket 2 dme 550 brux
Bucket 3 dme dregs

-----1 ag550b 1020 - banana
Into the carboy transfer 1st 1020, lots of banana

-----A 1019 - hard to describe, not banana, not funk
Into a good bucket no 2ndary yeast, last transfer, double check. Transfered Into bucket 2 FG is 1011. Tastes great good mix of belgian ester and touch banana touch twang

Oval dregs were 9 months old

2 1014 at 70? Into bucket b. Little Banana but clovey, boozy

3 1019 - less banana more clove/esters
1 with Brett, 1 with dregs
3 1015 FG, darker than all grain
-------

Carboy = ag550brux, 1020fg, 1016 after 2.5 months, light in color, starting to funkify! Slight tiny Brett/tart starting, super clean, pretty dry

Bucket b(lue) = dme 550 brux, fg1014, 2nd FG after 2.5 months 1013, taste weird, maybe funk, needs more time! Starting to get funky, little slick? Strong boozy clovey weird

Bucket 2 = Farmhouse ,, 2.5months 1010or 1011. Banana clove but smooth, mid dark, nice belgian, not much funk

Bucket a = dme 550 Orval fg1019, 2nd FG 2.5 months later, 1013. Strong funk, funkiest and dirty in a good way, wow, most developed funk this early

Atenuated much more than expected
Target 1020, Wlp550 was at 1014/15 at 2 weeks (no Brett) and Farmhouse was 1011.

2ndary on May 19, 16days after bree

B after 2 more weeks with Brett, bubbly still looks like 1.014ish. tastes strong slight carbonation lots of banana, cooled and carbonated, strong banana nose, taste: strong clovey with banana and sweet malt (cloying?). Does not have extract taste. Not bad but not great, too much banana and clove and probably too sweet, dark and strong . Needs more carbonation as well. Did 30 psi shook two times over 3hrs
