| 2011-02-27 15:30 EST | boil, start | 7.50 gl | 1.057 | With another 1.75 gallons left in the mash tun. :/ All told, combined-volume efficiency lists at 92%. | |
| 2011-02-27 16:00 EST | boil, addition | 6.50 gl | no addition, just a time/volume reading | ||

| 2011-02-27 17:05 EST | boil, end | 5.00 gl | Hops (in nylon bags) removed, apparently displacing a full half-gallon; went from 5.5g to 5g. | ||
| 2011-02-27 17:45 EST | pitch | 4.75 gl | 61 f | 1.070 | Added O₂ from bottle directly to cooled wort in the kettle. Kettle valve is super slow, and misses the last gallon; siphon works well, and only leaves about a quarter-gallon behind. |
