Notes

Came out a lot darker than brewers friend predicted.

Carafa 2 SRM correct?

Actual Brewhouse efficiency was 69-70% at the end of mash and adjusted upwards with sugar and extended boil

Micropipework has reduced efficiency from 80 -70%

Temperature schedule:
Pitched at 17.5, gradually ramped to 19.5
Day 2: 20.5, Day 3: 21.5, Day 4: 22.5
