Brew Batch #81 Jake's Juice

Coming out of Siebel, I wanted to make sure I could dial this recipe in. The last 10 gallons (AG) I split over different yeasts came out with off flavors. With this batch I propped the yeast for 2 days on a liter volume and then used a recirculating fountain pump on 15 gallons of ice cold water to cold break it from 200 to 75 in about 30 minutes. The pitch went great and I had crazy fermentation in 4 hours! OG 1.051+ 0.002@77F all on 1010. Let's see if I can knock out 5 gallons, re-pitch same yeast and hit 5 more.
