Notes

Best/Crisp Ale Malt istället för Pale 2row (samma Lovibond)

Startade med 25 liters kok. Kraftigt kokande tog oss ner till 16,5 liter på 60 min. (9,5 liter!)
Därav det höga OG.

Temperatur i rummet runt 15 grader. Långsam jäsning..?

Jäsning: 2016-10-18
Omtapp: 2016-10-24 (OG 1.030)
Flaskning: 2016-11-07

OG: 1.064
FG: 1.020
ABV: 5.78%
