Updated Ithaca Flower Power Clone Brew Session

Smooth brew day, overshot my strike temp but stirred it a couple of times and just waited til the temp dropped, mashed in at 153.7 and it held and finished at 153.5. Came in about a quart heavy on volume, gravity was very close to projected (1.072 vs 1.073), and the wort was hoppy and delicious when I tasted the last sample. I'll ferment at 63 and slowly bring up to 68 over the course of a week or so. I'm using Cellar Sciences Cali yeast, which performed very well on my SNPA clone brew. I'll dry hop the first time during active fermentation and add a second dry hop when fermentation is finished. Added first dry hop on 03/31/25 and added the second today 04/03/25, took gravity reading and beer is at 1.014, done fermenting so I'll bottle in a week or so. Bottled this 04/15/25 and ended up with 55 bottles of not quite clear, yellow beer. The sample smelled and tasted good; I'll test out the final product in a couple of weeks.
