More of all dont try this at home.
Recipe started out as Orfyy Hob Goblin with more rounded off measurements. Used the new corona style mill for the first time on this brew. To shorten the story let just say my crush was too fine. Stuck spare. Loosened it up some but it was veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrryyyy slow. Not the most terrible thing that could happen. So it was late I put the MLT outside and the brew kettle under it and went to bed. Sadly I was too busy the next day to get a full boil in. I forget if it sat outside for a full day or just the night. But I didnt want it sitting for much longer. It was covered but its not like that is much or a barrier. So I poured it on a SafAle 04 or 05 (i forget off hand) yeast cake. Remember this was a preboil volume going into a 6 gallon carboy. It went right up to the top! It sat for I believe a day and I checked it and it was fermenting like crazy! Finally I had time to brew. Emptied the carboy into the brew pot and proceed to brew with modified hop additions and very crude weighing techniques(yes my scale batteries decided to die that day)! I have NO IDEA how this is going to turn out. Im not even going to get into how lackadaisical I was about my mashing!
Overall this brew was way too much fun and although it may not be the best brew or brewing I learn what not to do next time! I guess!
