Ingredients-
Grain:
9 lbs 2 Row Pale Malt
1 lb Rye Malt
1 lb Crystal 20L
Hops:
1.5 oz CTZ @ 60
1 oz Cascade @ 30
3 oz Cascade @ 5
2 oz of some unlabeled hop from my freezer @ 5
0.5 oz Northern Brewer @ 5
Yeast:
Safale-05
Additives:
2 ml of 88% Lactic Acid to Mash (brought down to a pH of 5.2)
Wort collected: 4.5 gallons
OG: 1.076
FG:
28OCT2012-I lost about a gallon of wort to hops. I previously used a hop spider and would pull it out and let it drain the fluid out of them at the end of the boil. With the new hop stopper I'm using they remain soaked after everything is drained and I lost a gallon. If I would have had that gallon it would put me at 93% efficiency, without it I'm at 76%. Need to figure something out to fix that. Brew day went super smooth. New system is still working perfectly. Enjoying brewing again and loving not fighting things on my system.
