Free Loader Brut IPA Brew Session

Brew Session Info

10/6/2019
(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

Wort tasted fairly bitter and dank prior to fermentation. Hopefully, will smooth out, and dry hopping will help the profile. Pitch yeast (after hydrating) at ~76 deg, and ferment at 69-70 (shooting for 66, but basement was a bit warm). Airlock activity next morning. Added UltraFerm after 2 days of fermentation (airlock was already starting to slow).
