Notes

Scaled recipe to keep malt and syrup proportions correct.

Used a 90 min boil instead of 120 min. My OG was 1.088, less efficient due to smaller sparge water volume compared to the 120 min boil. To get 75% efficiency at 1.090 OG, use 120 min boil.

Cooled to 63F over night and pitched in the morning. After aerating, wort was about 65F. Let it free-rise to 66F and start from there, rising 2F per day.
