(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
more inclusive notes on iphone notes. Attempting to estimate boil volume such that I get right OG AND a full gallon liquid to primary (usually about a quart short).
1.022 at 134 after mash = 1.035 (@70) equivalent before boil
2 gal reduced to slightly more than 1.25 after boil.
Hopstand for 40 minutes
1.052 OG after cooling.
0.25 oz Columbus for 60 boil, then 0.125 Columbus, 1.0 Cascade in hopstand - all tossed out with trub. Decide later what to dry hop with.
Use funnel and mesh bag to get from boil kettle to 1 gal growler primary.
Nearly exactly 1.0 gal liquid into primary, pretty cloudy.
8/1 - move to secondary Gravity 1.014, lose about 2 cups to trub. Teeny hops aroma but very nice taste
8/10 - added 1oz Falconers Flight pellet hops to dry hop. Moved from basement (mid 60's) back up to closet (low 70's)
8/13 - moved to another container, trying to rid of hops - good aroma but what a mess! no more loose hops in 1 gallon fermenter bottles. Probably lost another cup or two of beer AND there's still quite a bit of sludge in there since couldn't strain the pellets very well.
8/15 - bottled - about 96oz to 4 22 oz bottles, decent aroma and taste

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 2.00gallonsliters at 1.035 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 0.75gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.048.
You wanted an OG of 1.054. It looks like it will be under.
