pale orange and bender
brewed up 20 gallons this afternoon. 10 gallons of the orange pale, clocked in at 15 brix, and 10 gal of surly bender at 13 brix. we finally got to use the pump and learned a good amount about priming and gravity. on our first attempt we ended up with a massive amount of hop sludge all over the floor. the pale orange ended up a little short, around 1 1/2 gallons short. no idea where that went unless we somehow lost it in the lines during chilling. on the bender we had a good amount of sparge water and didn't want to end up with less than 10 gallons. we were reading 15 brix about mid boil so we let a little more run-off into the kettle and ended at 13 brix, way below our expected og. with the amount of hops that went in at the last minute (5oz willamette whole) and the low og, hopefully this turns into a tasty session beer.
