Accidentally did the 15 minute hop addition at 30 minuets...Wasn't paying attention to the recipe. So I skipped the 15 minute and did the 5 minute and 1 minute addition.

I purchased the Flying Dog Raging ***** kit from them last month. It came with their Belgian yeast which seems to be called El Diablo (at least the best i can figure out).
My OG was 1.082. Took it down to 1.012
