How much to ship the 2.5 gal kegs to 87110?

1/2 point gravity could just be due to the warmer temp. You may have off gassed some CO2 during that time which would lead to a lower value. Or there may have been a little more fermentation. Im Guessing like most homebrewers you didnt degas the samples prior to testing. Not commonly done (or...

Lager makes (business) perfect sense.

Im probably done buying any more yeast strains. I can get yeast for free from local breweries. Take that Omega :)

Progressing nicely.
