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:

Poured with minimal head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is wheat bread and yeast primarily with a slight nuttiness. Color is brown and, when in the light very dark, translucent amber. Flavor is toasty malts, wheat bread, and finishes with a nutty chocolate flavor. Mouth feel is good, not too dense or watery. Carbonation is lacking, so may not be fully primed. The clarity of this is surprising as it's as clear as professional brews yet I don't filter. It's a successful brown ale but not my favorite as I would like something where the yeast imparts more flavor. This grain bill with a stronger, English ale yeast strain would be good I think.
