That Bell's yeast is a beast. I put a pound of honey in the secondary which boosted the OG to about 1.078, and it was 1.016 when I bottled on Sunday. I had dry-hopped with a 75/25 Citra/Simcoe mix--smelled & tasted great, now the waiting begins.

Have three recipes ready to go, just trying to determine which start next: a belgian stout, a brown ale, and a SMSH experiment using my homegrown hops that I will split into 3 batches, using a different yeast with each batch.
