Notes

Brewed 6/15/16. Strike temp was 17F above mash temp and I had to cool it a couple degrees. Had to cut the sparge about a gal short because we hit 2 brix. In kettle efficiency was about 86% (1.042) which puts it right on target. Cooled the wort down to about 64F. Ended up with about 10gal in the fermenters including the 2 liter starter. Efficiency was very high at 93% and way too strong of a beer (addition of corn sugar helped). We diluted the the beer down with about a gallon to 11 gal and the gravity balanced out a bit. The brewhouse efficiency reflects this and it leveled out to 84%.
