Notes

Mostly went well. Forgot to turn element off before mash in and circulation so I had a mash that had to work down from 159 degrees to 152. I lost a little volume but came down to temp within 15 minutes. I still came close to my predicted OG with 1.062 actual. Fermenter bubbling in 4-5 hours.
