Notes

I hit about 149 to 150 on average for the mash temp. I topped off with one liter of water but didn't attempt to take another temp reading. I am assuming it was about 150 on average. Seems like 25lb is about the max for my mashtun. I added a lot of salts this time so we shall see how that all works out. Aged this in a 5 gal balcones whiskey barrel for 4 months. Took runner up Best in Show at the 2014 Bay Area Brew Off which had about 250 entries.
