Orangutan #2

Because one Orangutan just isn't enough, we've brewed another one! Besides, who would be willing to wait another two and half months to drink it again?! :-)

We did make one small mistake in brewing this one, though. The recipe calls for lactose to be added after the steeping but, oops!, we forgot. So we actually added the lactose at the end of the brewing before transferring to the fermenter.

What will this change do to the final brew? We have no idea. But everything is a learning experience.

For the technical geeks, the OG was 1.055 and the yeast was pitched at 75 degrees.
