66F KO
Easy brew. Pre-boil gravity was a couple points higher than I guessed. I tried to dial in the boil to not overshoot to the gravity too far. Guessing efficiency was closer to 77-78%. Set to 68F, was fermenting by 7AM on 3/5.
3/9@1.010-1.011@71F
3/19@1.007--kegged with dry hops--split the DH 1/2 each Amarillo and Chinook.
Golden orange, good clarity. White foam. Light citrus and pine aromatics with a malty sweet note. Malt is clean and lightly sweet with notes of toasted bread, dissolving into resinous hops, with whispers of peach in the periphery. Medium-light bodied, with a fairly neat finish, leaving only an imprint of lupulin behind.
Nothing wrong with this beer--quite drinkable--but a bit boring, and not my favorite yeast for this type of beer. WY1318 would've been more expressive in flavor, while WY1275 would've pushed the hops to the forefront.

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 7.20gallonsliters at 1.038 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.00gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.043.
You wanted an OG of 1.044. It looks like it will be under.
