Festbier Brew Session

(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

Good brew day. Much better efficiency than I was anticipating, possibly due to the longer mash. Split the Skare and Cal Common yeasts between 2 gallons each of wort. 8/15 - bottled today. Cal Common yeast finished at 1.014 while the Skare yeast finished at 1.011. The Skare yeast is clearer and cleaner tasting while the Cal Common yeast has some fusel. Pretty good though for either sample.

You wanted an OG of 1.066. It looks like it will be under.
