Notes

Brew Day 7/6/24:

Ambient/Outside temp: 103 F

Strike Temp: 162 F

Mash Temp: 151-158 F (60 min)
-We should have shot for a lower strike temp considering how hot it is today. The mash temp landed at 156 F but later when I went to check on it it had climbed to 158 F. I left the lid cracked in hopes to drop the temp a few degrees. 1 hour timer started.
-152 F reached at 42 minutes left. Wort rested a majority of time at 151 F.

Mash Out 170 F (10 min)

1st Runnings - Approx. 4 gal

Batch sparge - 180 F (10 min)

  • Collected over 4 gal. Boil kettle is filled to the top. Boil over inevitable.
  • Definitely had boil over. Waited for it to finish before adding hops.

    2 oz Centennial added at 60 min

    1oz Mandarina-Bavaria added at 45 min

    1oz Saaz added at 30 min

    Wort cooled and honey added at 110 F.

    OG: 1.115
