Starter Procedure:
Tuesday March 17, 2020 I made my standard starter and placed it on the stir plate overnight.

Brew Procedure:
      On Wednesday March 18, 2020, I brewed. Using http://www.biabcalculator.com/ I found I needed 7 gallons of water to add to the mash.  Had some trouble regulating temperature of the mash but got it figured out by adding heat and ice in a bag.
     After mashing I transferred to the kettle and completed the brew using the following schedule:

I cooled the wort and pitched the yeast into a 6.5 gallon fermentation buckets and oxygenated for 15 seconds.

UPDATE: 3/25/2020 fermentation complete transferred to corny keg and put on 30 PSI for 24 hours.

Additional comments: Need to buy a stainless steel slug to put in the dry hop bag so that it sinks.
