Notes

Instead of a 5 gallon batch I decided to go with an 8 gal. batch only because I upped the grain bill by about 3 lbs. I brewed this in a 5 gallon batch before as per http://www.homebrewtalk.com/members/Battery_Brewer and it turned out excellent. Also I'm using 2 smack packs of Wyeast 1056, only because I'm being lazy and not making a starter. I also topped off with tap water to give me a 10 gallon batch.

Just tasted yesterday. Turned out great... Next time I'll use the White Labs pure pitch packs. My attenuation was only 65% with the wyeast.
