Brewed 1/26/18. 156-degree strike water (4.5 gal.) got me a 145-degree rest step, held it for 30 minutes. 190-degree water (1.5 gallons) brought the next rest up to 155, held it for 30 minutes. Topped with approx. 1 gallon, bringing the boil size to 5.5 gallons. Wort pH was 5.4. 90-minute boil. Contrary to what I have below, I ended up blending the three hops (4% AAU avg.) and added 1 oz at 60, 1 oz at 30, and 1 oz at 15. OG was 1.087. Pitched the yeast cake from my previously made pilsner and a rehydrated packet of Saflager w-34/70. Spent 2.5 weeks in primary at 55-59 degrees. Accidentally racked it onto to 3 oz Cascade hops (the dry hopping was meant for my stout, but I mixed them up). As soon as I realized it (right after transferring), I transferred it again ... so it was accidentally dry hopped for about an hour. On 2/14/18 I moved it to my fridge for lagering (approx. 35-38 degrees). 4/17/18 I moved it indoors to slowly bring it up to room temp (70 degrees). Bottled on 4/19/18 with CBC-1. FG = 1.018. ABV = 9%
