Comments

20110215 - Racked to secondary from the single blue plastic extract carboy to 2 glass carboys. Probably have about 9-10 gallons. SG was down to only 1.040. Flavor was still very sweet, but no offs. Didn't look like the yeast had flocculated very much since it was still cloudy indicating that there was still quite a bit in suspension. The next day, the airlocks on both carboys were very active, so maybe racking it kick started it a bit.

20110302 - Gravity reading after a couple weeks of secondary in two carboys. 1.028 and 1.026, so an average of roughly 1.027. Sweetness is now more in balance, and the flavor is very smooth and complex. I'm excited about this beer now.
