Notes

Started mash at about 68C, wrapped the pot in a towel and let it sit until about 60 mins. Dropped to about 62C, so I added a bit of heat and let it sit another 15 mins.

I read about Belgian IPAs being mashed at lower temps so I thought this strategy was ok. We'll see...

EDIT: I modified the mash temp to 66C in the recipe after the fact and it skewed the calculation towards 8.4% ABV, while originally I had entered 67C and it said 8.3%, the true ABV of Raging Bitch :/


Taste test before bottling is a bit spicy, but good.
