(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
temperature in mash declined by at least 10 degrees (from 154 to 142-ish). Added some of sparge water and mashed 10 mins longer, but didn't really recover temp, nor could I get mash-out to 170 since I was adding sparge water to cooler. Probably should mash in pot so I can heat it up. poor extraction - though smells awesome - 1.043 to fermenter.
To fermenter at about 730pm, a few bubbles now at 730am.
8/25/2019 - gravity at 1.010, transferred to secondary with about 0.2 oz CTZ and 0.3 oz citra. About 1.8 gal to secondary (perhaps underestimated the volume in primary)
8/29/2010 - pulled hops, replaced with 0.4 oz Citra and ?0.4 oz Mosaic from old bag
9/3/2019 - pulled hops, replaced with 0.4 oz Citra, 0.4 oz Simcoe - realized I shouldn't have used the CTZ before gravity about 1.008
9/11/2019 - bottled, 1.008 gravity - 8 22oz bottles. Would've had one or two more bottles but sloshed liquid during transfer and didn't want to wait for settling. Lotsa work for just 1.375 gallon of beer ;-)
interesting, slightly hoppy aroma, bitter taste
should be about 4.6% abv
pretty good, light, crisp flavor with good bitter - as always would like more hops aroma

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 3.50gallonsliters at 1.043 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 0.75gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.052.
You wanted an OG of 1.055. It looks like it will be under.
