[Wedding brews] porter redux

Greetings,

Sooooo, I went back over the brew notes and I think I found my culprit. I
added too much sparge water, and then forgot to recalculate the DME addition
based on a diluted wort. (We ended up with about 6.5 gals. Which is why,
surprise, my OG was low.)

That only accounts for the ABV difference, of course. The flavor difference
is definitely attributable to the change in base malt from Maris Otter to US
2-row.

Yours in brewing and all else,
