Mash Schedule
Mash in at 122 F and immediately heat to 155 F (took 16 min), Mash for 45 min. then mash out at 170
Fermented at 65 F for 7 days before dry hopping in primary. Kegged 5 days later
FG was 1.012
Force cabonated
Notes
"Dry" Hops were mixed with 10 Tbsp of vodka for 1 hr before adding everything to the primary fermentor
The competition took place 8 weeks after the beer was brewed. Timing was important, as 7 weeks out the Simcoe was way too dominant, but it mellowed quite a bit in the week before the competition.
