Thoughts and Comments: added an extra 24 oz of table sugar. I deviated from the recommended yeast which had a lower attenuation rate, I used this normal one to get a higher attenuation rate which will make it dryer. The FG during bottling was 1.012, I don't know why it was much lower, maybe mixing in the alcohol? maybe fermented more?
Recipe Notes: added an extra 24oz of table sugar in boil. put bottle of makers mark with oakchips (and extra oak chips) for 48 hours. and then mixed the bourbon/chips combo in at secondary in the 5 gal carboy after two weeks of primary
