Notes

3/25/2022 - Brew Day - Had to widen one side of my mill to get the Pilsner malt to feed through. I've had this issue before as well. Pre-boil SG 1.048. Added hops directly to the boil without a a basket due to the low amount. Chilled to 66 degrees and pumped into the fermenter, leaving the last bit behind so I can save the yeast cake. Plan to ferment on the cooler side to try and bring out more banana esters.
