Notes

3/31 OG was 1.053
4/21 FG 1.010

Brew Day: 3/31/22
Cold Crash: 4/13/22
Keg: 4/21/22

MASH: 3.4 gal to 170 strike temp

SPARGE: 5 gal at 170
Absorption: .12 x 10.75 lb = 1.29;
Mach of 3.4 - 1.3 = 2.1 out, so 5 gal sparge to 7gal

Water in each mash & spare:

  • 1/8 tsp gypsum - in mash & sparge
  • 1/4 tsp CaCl - in mash & sparge

    Pre boil gravity 1.041 - looking for 8-10 pts higher for OG
