Had a nice brew session and everything went according to plan. Hit all the numbers and pitched a LOT of yeast at 44F. Let the temp rise to 50F after 1 day of visible fermentation. Finished at 55F and then crash cooled it before kegging. The batch was done in 1 week which is the fastest I've seen a lager ferment. OG: 1.054 #92
