    Not much to report, the brew went pretty smoothly. Scott and Sarah K came over to lend a hand. Ended up taking a while to clean the kitchen so we didn’t start the brew until almost 1AM. They had to go not long after the grains finished steeping so I ended up maintaining the boil alone for most of it. After the brew was over I woke up Jackie to hold the the brew pot in the bathtub while I finished preparing the fermenting bucket.

    Note: Buy a good manual can opener. The cheep one from 7-11 was worse than the electric that I ended up using again.

    1.072 original measured gravity at 75F + .0015 to compinsate temp = original gravity of 1.0735
