Notes

Two step decoction mash. Will infuse 2.51 gallons of 128 degree water into mash and raise to 122. Pull 2/3 thick decoction and raise to 159 for 20 minutes, then raise to a boil and boil for 20 minutes. Add part of decoction back until temp is at 149 and rest for 10 minutes. Then pull 33% of mash for thin decoction and boil for 10 minutes and add back to main mash to raise to 167. Add more hot water to reach pre boil volume and proceed to boil.

Brew was inside on stovetop

Totally screwed up initial brew by letting first rest get up to 200 degrees, milled new grain and started over. Next attempt went much better, but I topped up to 4.5 gallons pre boil instead of 4, so had to boil long to get down to 3 gallons.

Had just over two gallons of wort from initial brew that screwed up, hopped to 90 IBU with Magnum and Goldings and boiled down to 1 gallon to a gravity of 1.102 and will ferment with 34/70 as well
