| 2009-06-06 16:30 EDT | boil, start | 5.75 gl | Forgot to take a gravity reading at this point, so this is an estimate from the pitch gravity, minus the extract (1.036) and corn sugar (1.007) contributions, for a gravity of 1.056. Software has a bug in the efficiency calculation of "85.24%" below; real efficiency for just the grains is about 77%. | ||

| 2009-06-20 12:00 EDT | primary fermentation | 1.017 | This is tasting great, unlike the porter or the previous couple of batches on this yeast cake. Pitching temp? | ||

| 2009-09-19 | gravity sample | 1.019 | Continues to taste great; this is going to be a nice winter warmer. | ||

| 2009-12-06 17:20 EST | bottled | 1.020 | Primed with 175g corn sugar, for 2 volumes, which should come out to somewhere between 2-3 volumes depending on residual CO₂. Bottled into: - 1 750 ml swing-top - 12 12oz bottles - 18 22oz bombers |
