I planned for 45 gallons of wit, ended up with 40 and wals over gravity. 1059 was the starting gravity and is a bit high for a wit. Not that I'm complaining about a little more kick to a beer

Nice, looks like you must have been brewing for a while. Let me know where the party will be.

It was quite a long day, three 15 gallon batches went into the big blue fermentors.
I'm tired just thinking about that! But I bet it feels great to get it done, what an accomplishment.

Yeah that was the most I've ever made in a single day. All in all about 12 hours of brewing.
Wow, three 15 gallon batches in one day, that is an accomplishment! Nice job! Time for a brew...or three!

It's getting split into 30 gallons of wit and 15 gallons of raspberry wit
You going to invite a village over to drink it?

Going to take it on the annual camping trip, about 20 of us. Don't want to run out!
Awesome brew. I first worried about temperature control on that big fermenter having never made a wit. How did you manage yeast for 45 gallons? Whole cake from a 5 gallon batch?

No temp control on it. It's in the garage where it hasn't gotten above mid 60s yet. I plan on putting a stainless steel coil in the lid for future brews so I can have temp control. It was the cake from 2 five gallon batches so I think I had a pretty good pitching rate.
