Mash Notes
2.5 gal distilled, water down to 5.8ph. 2g each cc and gyp.


Boil Notes
Added another gallon to the sparge, pre-boil still looked low. Added around 1/2 gallon britta to boil later. Windy, hard to maintain good steady boil. Added yeast nutrient.


Fermentation Notes
Repitched on 3rd generation 830 cake. Was able to chill down to 50F & last batch for yeast, so just went right on cake w/o usual break sep procedure.


Packaging Notes
1 overflowing tsp biofine - no cold crash, just cold basement
