(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
Strike water at a 165? 5 gallons. Sparged with another 5 gallons. Yielding 7.75 gallons at 15 brix. Boiled for 60 min. Resulting in 17 brix 1.07 SG. Cooled to 180 whirlpooled for 20 minutes. Chilled to about 90 and then put into fermenter. Chilled to about 80 and pitched. Over Chilled to about 65. (After problems with thermostat I had to relocate probe closer to door) Airlock activity showed overnight. Brought up to about 75 and down to 68. Added hops on Tuesday. Too much krausen as hops did not sink. Next time harvest some krausen and create a hole for hops. Kegged early on end of day on 8/6 where calcualted gravity was 1.23 to consume extra oxygen and naturally carbonate. 70deg for 2 days and keg over-carbonated.

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 7.75gallonsliters at 1.061 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.00gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.069.
You wanted an OG of 1.071. It looks like it will be under.
3 1/2 Stars. Pretty good hybrid West-Coast Hazy hybrid. More bitter than a NEIPA. After a week, beer started to clear but still relatively hazy. Hop bite mellowed out. Should continue to improve.
