Bottled 5 gallons of this brew this afternoon. This time I used three additions of Centennial spreading one ounce over 60, 15 and 5 minutes. The hydro sample tasted great!

My third batch of this is bubbling away in primary right now. I bottle condition and it always takes about a month in the bottle for it to come into its own.

The last batch of this that I brewed, I forgot the whirlfloc. Was cloudy when I bottled at three weeks, but cleared up nicely in the bottle. That was using US05, so YMMV.

I bought a steel yard stick at Wally World. Pour in one gallon at a time and measure the depth. Turns out my 24 qt pot(I do 3 gallon batches) is almost exactly 2"/gallon.
