Notes

When I make a double batch (a.k.a. 2x a beer) as opposed to a single, the same amount of heat is absorbed by the mash tun. This causes the temperature of the mash to be higher for the same temperature of mash-in water. I lower the mash-in temp water by a 2-5 degrees to obtain desired results. I probably should be pre-heating the tun, but I don't brew often enough to practice this part of the procedure and it works for me.

Batch #1 - Voss Kviek yeast - Pitch Temp 30 C
1 oz Simcoe

Batch #2 - Hothead ale Kviek yeast - Pitch Temp 30 C
1 oz Citra

Good and useful info on Kviek yeasts:
