Flawless brew day. OG nearly spot on at 1.068. Used a Wyeast American Ale 1056 yeast starter cultivated from previous fermentation. Added 500 ml of distilled water and 50 gr of crystal sugar to jumpstart fermentation in yeast starter. 2/4/2016 gravity at 1.035 moved to secondary. Nice bitter flavor so no infection in yeast starter. Added 20 gr of cascade for dry hopping instead of 8 gr. 2/16/2016 gravity dropped to 1.032. 2/19/2016 gravity 1.031

Very bitter compared to previous batch (better to use hop eggs..) Waiting ...
