Brewday. What a mess. I'm not sure if it was being unfamiliar with darker malts, or that I ground my grain too fine, but the bag became clogged within a few minutes. Pretty much had to stir and scrape the bag for the entire 90 min mash. The upside to this is that is that I hit 80% efficiency, my highest ever. And this beer is going to now be an 8.5% monster.

Also had some wild temp fluctuations while trying to figure out why my sparge was sticking. 1st I forgot to turn the heat down to 156 while adding grain, so it stayed at 165 for a couple of minutes. Then, when everything was getting backed up, the top kettle temp dropped into the 130's while the bottom temp probe showed 154. Eventually, with a lot of stirring, it all evened out about 30 minutes into the mash.

OG = 1.080

Rehydrated and pitched the K-97 at the same time as the US-05 for the Garage Floor IPA.

Transferred to keg. FG=1.021, 7.74% ABV

Finally finished this off. Was a very smooth drinking stout for my first try. Next time try some vanilla and a little less of the chocolate roast flavor.

Notes: Step by Step

Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash temperature of 152°F. Hold the mash at around 152°F for 60 minutes. Collect first runnings into boil kettle and begin heating. Sparge with 21 qt of 166°F water, collecting wort and adding to kettle until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons. Take hydrometer reading if calculating efficiency.

The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add 3 lbs of Belgian Candi and the bittering hops with 25 minutes remaining in the boil. Add Irish moss and Maltodextrine with 15 minutes left in the boil. Add wort-chiller and yeast nutrient to the boil with 10 minutes left. Add aroma hops with 5 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort to 70°F and aerate thoroughly. Take sample for hydrometer reading. Pitch one package of Safale-05 into 6.5 gallon fermenting bucket, aerate and airlock it!

Ferment at 67°F until the yeast drops clear. At this temperature and with healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in 10-14 days.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In Brew Like A Monk, one of the brewers recommended mashing out and sparging no higher than 163°. That way you purposely don't denature the enzymes and conversion continues until the boil starts. If you're mashing at 146°, you're going for a highly fermentable, dry beer. "In that situation, 163 makes sense. I did it on my last batch. I achieved my best efficiency to date and fermentation went like gangbusters. This wasn't a huge beer (1.046 SG) and I nearly had a blowout with 5 gallons in a 6.5 gallon Ale Pail (the kreusen crept up the airlock but didn't quite go out the top)."

Notes: Very drinkable and easy recipe. Light in body, with a little bit of citrus coming through via the hops and wheat combination. Has ended up being pretty clear for a wheat beer, but still has the body that you are used to.
