Notes
I made this today for a highly hopped IPA which I like for a few drinks. I'm adding 100 gms of Zythos hops to the mash to get some more hop character.Mashed a 150F for 90 minutes and did a 90 boil also. I used a Blichmann Therminator with a Thrumometer. Cooled 11 gallons in less than 30 minutes to 65F. It would have been less time but the Thrumometer is 3/8" instead of 1/2" on the Therminator. Maine well water is pretty cool probably 50ish and I had to slow the water to a trickle. Oxygenated the carboys with a O2 tank and plan on raising the temp to 70F withing a few days.

Wyeast American Ale II

Pitched a one quart active starter between 2 carboys which I made the day before brew day from the smack pack and one cup of light DME simmered in 1 quart of water. I oxygenated the starter prior to pitching the yeast into the cooled light DME and both carboys. Immediately saw the airlock become active. Within 4 or 5 hours I replaced the airlocks with blow-by tubes. Very vigorous yeast.
