My Buddy's daughter is getting married Jun 20th and he wanted a wedding brew. We put this one in the carboy yesterday (actually 2 carboys). Our OG was almost 10 points higher than predicted(not sure how that happened as we endded up with about 11 gallons of wort). Will post again as the process goes along. -James-
