Notes

26oz of Marris Otter was Cold-Smoked for an hour with Mesquite Wood. It then was sealed in Mason Jars for 5 days to cure.

7 Quarts of Mash water heated to 181 degrees and then poured into Mash Tun to temper for 15 Minutes. After 15 minutes the Tun temp was 171.

After Dough-In the temp dropped too far down to 150, I added roughly 3 quarts of Boiling Water to raise temp to 158 degrees. Started timer for 60 minutes at this point.

**First Runnings were 1.077 on Hydrometer and 1.075 on Refractometer.

I adjusted Refractometer to Hydrometer readings and Pre-Boil measured 1.052 on both Instruments.

***Measured Post Boil Gravity at 1.067 on Refractometer, 1.067 on Hydrometer as well.

Checked Gravity on June 5th and it was at 1.023 for a ABV of 5.78% and 67% Attentuation. (It did take 3.5 days to get started from initial pitch).
