Notes

Strike Water should be at 160.4F for the 13 LBS of grain
13 Quarts of sparge water will be needed.

This was a bit sloppy of a brew day. I did a starter 1 day before brewing with yeast that was about 6 months old. The starter seemed to work fine. I brewed this outside with the temperature of -4F... the propane tanks didn't like that very much so the boil didn't look as strong. Instead of running the chiller outside I brought the wort downstairs and connected it to the wash basin, this worked really nice.

Moved to secondary and dry hopped day 7. Dry hops were in for 3 days before crash cooling.

Post Boil BRIX: 15.4 or 1.063
Fermentation Temp: 18.5C or 65.3F (3 days)
Fermentation Temp: 20C or 68F (4 days)
Fermentation Temp: 21C or 70F (3 days)
Crash Cooled: 2C or 35.5F (2 days)
Post Fermenation BRIX: 8.2 or 1.014

Kegged on day 11 and added 1 packet of geletine to the keg. Shook for a few mins.
