Notes

This is my first attempt at brewing a sour mash beer. I mashed in with 4 gallons of 173F water to 5 pounds of grain. Resting temp started at 151F, and I left it sit for 48 hours. I then boiled 4 gallons of strike water. The mash temp got to 134F, so I drained out about 2.5 gallons into a pot and brought to boil. I returned the wort to the mash, which brought the temp to 150F. The rest of the brew day went as normal.
