1/18/13: Starter (3 oz light DME, 1/4 t yeast nutrient and 1 qt. water)
1/21/13: Brew day. Decoction mash. 30-minute protein rest at 125 F, then mash temp held at 148 for 1 hour. OG: 1.048
2/6/13: Transferred to Secondary. Fermentation temp has been between 55 and 60.
3/6/13: Moved fermenter to a warmer location (high 60s) to rest for a few days before bottling.
3/12/13: Bottled. FG: 1.010
4/1/13: Beer has carbonated, so I moved it to a beer fridge set to its warmest temp (38-40F). From here, I plan to let it lager for months.
