8% (6 gravity pts) extract boost due to decoction?

Single decoction:

Dough in for protein rest x 10 min, then ramp up to 152.

After 30 min at 152, pull 1/3 thick mash (8-10 qt?), heat to boil x 30 min while stirring, then add back to mash kettle. Reset to 170F for mash out x 10 min

FWH while draining basket

cold sparge 0.3 gal to hit preboil volume

Remove boil hop bags at flame out.

Wait 10 min, then add flame out hops in a bag, steep x 20 min then rapidly chill to 60-65F.

Drain wort into FV and then attach to FTC - chill to 48F (HEPA filter in blow off stopper)

Pitch at 48F and allow to free rise to 50F. Ferment at 50F x 7 days, then raise to 55F x 3 days, then raise to 60F x 2 days. Check gravity on day 13 & and 15, and if stable, cold crash and package as per usual.
