Water Profile: Chicago
Mashed in with 4 gallons of water and came out at around 149 degrees F. Allowed the mash to sit for 90 minutes in order to ensure full conversion. Flyed sparged with around 4 gallons of water at 170 degrees. Collected a little over 7 gallons of wort.
Brewed: 7/27/13
Chilled to around 74 degrees F and pitched a yeast start I made the night before. Around a week later the yeast is still working. Was hoping that it would have knocked down the gravity a little faster.
Secondary: 8/21/13 Racked onto around 2.75 lbs of frozen and sliced cucumbers. Looking back, it may have been easier/a better idea to cube the cucumber.
