Notes

First Brew. Followed instruction sheet from Northern Brewer for boil. Cooled wort with immersion to 60 degrees. OG Hydro reading 1.043 Pitched decanted yeast starter at 59 degrees into wort that was 60 degrees. Installed Brew Jacket and brought the temp up to 62 degrees. Good fermentation , not sure when it kicked in because no air in blowoff due to seal issue around plastic sleeve on Brew Jacket. Hydro reading taken at 51 Hr mark . Reading 1.016 adjusted for sample temp of 64 degrees. Estimate 5 degrees from target FG. Will raise temp in the morning to give yeast a DE rest.
