Notes

3L with 5.4kg of grains takes up 19.8L of space in the mash tun.
20º grains strike water temp is 76-77ºC. Aim for Mash Temp of 68ºC for a fuller bodied porter.

Mash Temp at 68ºC. Strike water was at 77º but this only got it to 66º had to add boiling water at the end to get it to 68º. Topped up the tun to full to hit strike temp. Set strike water at 80º next time to get 68ºC. See photo to see where to set urn dial.
Mash went for an hour and a quarter and temp dropped to 67ºC.

Bubbling and krausen started 6 hours after putting into fermenter.
Original gravity 1.06
Final gravity read at 1.02
Alc 5.25 attenuation 66%

Added coconut when fermentation finished (after 1 week) left it over night only as the flavour was good the next day.
Primed with 2.4 vols CO2 (130gm of dextrose)
