A little smaller boil than ususal (~5 gallons) but then topped up in the Primary to get to 1.040s. Menat to add half the hops at the start of the boil and the other half with 15mins, but forgot :). All got added at the start and got a 60min boil. Good action by the next morning, temp holding ~60F on the floor inthe basement - wish it was little cooler, but.... oh well. Yeast was pitched directly - no starter used.Got the carboy into the basement closet at ~50F - looking good , cant waitAprils ...
