i'll be brewing this this weekend. it'll be the final brew on my current system. and if it turns out as good as the thread makes it out to be, i may do a 10 gallon batch as the maiden voyage on my new system.
I am brewing this on Saturday (39 hours and counting )
Anyway...I noticed the 7 day primary and 14 day secondary.....
Normally I do not secondary my brews unless really necessary for the style, etc.......so what is the verdict on this.....is the secondary necessary? Is there a real reason for it on this particular beer?
Also, would I be looking for a 75% completion towards FG as my target to transfer to secondary?
I think i read many pages deep that the OP goes from primary to keg. Don't see why you'd need a secondary with this beer.

Sipping I mashed at about 158 - 162 F, missed my target of 154 a bit.
Will this also affect it ?

Fantastic recipe! Tasted it side by side with family and Dry Dock Brewing Co. Brown Ale and hands down everyone thought this was better. Thanks!
Cheers!
