Notes

10/11/2017 - Brew Day - let water sit overnight with a portion of a campden tablet. Volume was a little on the low side (.5 gallons off) at the start of the boil. Hibiscus was added with 5 minutes left in the boil, so both batches will be hibiscus instead of adding to just one post-fermentation. Wort chiller sprung a leak at the beginning of the chilling, so this beer may have more hop flavor and aroma than expected. New wort chiller was purchased and wort was chilled down in about an hour after the end of the boil, but the temp was higher for at least 30 minutes after flameout.

**Yeast for Crooked Stave batch was harvested and built up with a couple 500ml starters from a bottle of Crooked Stave Table Beer.
