Gravity Estimates

Based on boiling {{CalculateBoilVolumeDisplay}} gallonsliters at {{CalculatePreBoilGravityDisplay}} for {{CalculateBoilTimeDisplay}} minutes, this will decrease your wort by {{CalculateBoilLoss}} gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to {{CalculateFinalGravityFromPreBoilGravity}}.

You were planning on an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}} so you are right on track. Nice job! You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be over. You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be under.

Notes:

Ginger very prominent. Got the raw ginger edge a bit. Needs to be a little sweeter. Need some unfermentables in there to fully balance out the ginger bite.

Notes:

Ginger more prominent. Hops give a nice bitter finish. Good balance between the ginger bite and the hop bitterness at the tail. One blends into the other, so you are not quite sure where one ends and the other starts. Good mouthfeel. Not sure I will be needing to do much more with the ginger next time except finely chop/mince it.

Notes:

Only 9 days. Yeast cake just settled. Can taste the ginger, but not strong. Still very raw.
