Notes

03/08 - Didn't have enough strike water (11l was the auto recommendation). I've upped that to 15l and adjusted the sparge water to 16l. Next time will be better.

18/08 - Found the mash and sparge water calculations, updated to match the calculations. Seems to work fine if I update the mash thickness to 2.7/
