Notes:

  1. I was distracted so I steeped for 55 minutes instead of 30 minutes.
  2. Back to Dark LME instead of Golden LME.
  3. Siciliano’s did not have Bravo hops, so I changed 1.5 oz Bravo to 1.0 oz Colombus and 1.0 oz Magnum
  4. Skipped Wirlfloc tablet.
  5. 2023-04-03 transferred to secondary (plastic bucket).
  6. 2023-04-18 kegged. FG measured higher than expected/desired. Tasted good though.
