Notes

2 Step Starter from Smack Pack.
2x1.5L, 2nd gorn off like rocket spilling over sides of 2L Flask.
Get Another 5l Glass Carboy.
Maybe didn't leave 2nd starter to settle out long enough before pitching.Seems slow in fermenter .(Edit: Still gently bubbling away 5days later)

Efficiency up to 87% (finely milled packets?)from planned 80??
Comparing new Refractometer to Hydrometer.

33L into Fermenter.
