estOG: 1.074

Notes: Hit OG of 1007; FG was 1002. Colour was very dark (perhaps too dark).

Left it in the fermenter for a week - was somewhat worried I might get an infection given the ABV is so low, but doesn't seem to have happened.

If you re-brew, I recommend reducing the IBU. It is too bitter for the low ABV.

"Use a double decoction mash schedule with a protein rest at 122° F (50° C) for 20 minutes, main mash rests at 145° F (63° C) for 40 minutes and 155° F (68° C) for 20 minutes, and a mash-out at 165° F (74° C) for 10 minutes."

skipping protein rest

1. mash in at 145 and hold for 40 mins.
2. Immediately remove 1/3 of grains from the bag, raise temp to 155 for 10 mins, then boil it for 15-30 mins and add it back to the mash at end of 40 mins which should raise the temp to 155.
3. Immediately remove 1/3 grain, raise temp to 155 for 10 mins, then boil for 15-30 mins and return it to the mash which should raise temp to 165.
4. Hold at 165 for 10 mins
