Tokyo tap water, but I only have Gysum and CaCl to play with, so I just added equal parts to get the Cl and SO4 up (and some calcium as a result, but not as high as I wanted)

Notes

Was originally gonna do a proper imperial stout but I felt underprepared and decided to just do a stronger "imperial" coffee stout. I'm picturing Brewtus from Monocacy Brewing in Frederick, MD, but I have no idea what their actual grist is like (the ABV and IBU are on point though).

SRM is way too high because idk what I'm doing. Need to burn through a bunch of midnight wheat I have lying around, but it has a huge affect on SRM.

Two packets US-05, rehydrated.

*** FG was 1024 after 30 days in fermenter... must be related to the sparge, which I did by dunking the bag in 76 degree water. That is a huge deviation from the expected FG so it must be related to this (mashing a little high wouldn't account for all of it).
