Single Infusion, Full Body, Batch Sparge
Step Time Name Description Step Temp
45 min Mash In Add 21.25 qt of water at 163.7 F 152.0 F
Notes:
------
This was an attempt to make something similar to the Trader Joes Vintage ales that come out each year.
Tasting this after it sat in secondary for 5 weeks, its an amazing beer. Its going to go into a corn whiskey barrel for aging.
The one problem that was noted is my OG reading of 1.156, which seems too high. Im positive that is what I read when brewing, but may need to brew this again and keep better track of OG.
