Notes

11/18/19-Recipe adjusted for what happened. 1# 2-row and 1/2# wheat toasted in oven a week in advance. I wanted a lower temp mash for higher attenuation and drier beer, but the amount of grain is lower and so it probably didn’t absorb as much heat as I expected based on other batches of higher ABV, so it still mashed in higher than planned.

I have never done all whole hops before, not sure if that is what throws the gravity off or not. In any case, I’ll at least know what these hops taste like (I grow them at home) and it’ll be a session beer which is what I was shooting for anyway.

I plan on moving to keg at day 2 of primary fermentation for dry hopping and spunding. I will keep it at room temp for a week or so and then put on gas for 1-2 days while chilling for Thanksgiving.
