This is my Brew plan \u00a0\/ Log. I start with the recipe pasted onto a blank sheet, and put down the basic steps, which outlines my plan. Once I\u2019ve started brewing I copy that plan, and make notes on anything I\u2019ve overlooked, screwed up. Noting what worked and things to do better next time. Here\u2019s a cleaned up plan \/ log. I\u2019m posting this to show you what in my log. If you log something I don\u2019t. I\u2019d be interested in hearing it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nBagged grains
\nStarted \u00a02g water in pot, put grains in pot.
\nSet timer for 45
\nMissed 170, Grains got hotter than 170, I assume this will cause off \/ acrid taste\/ over extraction.

\nagitated wort and yeast to mix thoroughly.
\nPlaced in corner, add air lock.
\nTemp measured 64 on side of carboy.
\npitched at 64 at 1:54pm.
\nStarting gravity w\/ yeast starter, 1058 w\/out calculating SG correction<\/p>\n

Monday 2\/21 Obvious fermentation has started; airlock bubbling away
\nMonday 2\/21 Evening, had to swap airlock for blow off hose and jar due to such rapid fermentation.
\nFermentation temp measured 67\/68 on side of carboy.<\/p>\n

Tuesday 3\/1
\nMeasured SG 1014 @64 w\/out SG correction
\nTasted, it tasted good, a little sweet, looks really dark brown, auburn. Decent mouth feel.
\nRacked to secondary, I\u2019m seeing some outgassing again, so this should bring SG down even further.
\nYeast isn\u2019t cleaned yet, but I prepped water for yeast washing.<\/p>\n
