Notes

Adapted from https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/544741/pirate-life-pale-ale

Using new burner/stand with HP regulator (2kg/hr)
Heated 46L water in kettle to strike temp 76°C. Took approx 20mins from 45°C.
Turn off burner, Remove kettle from burner.
Added all grain in double bag. (Next time calculate total volume in kettle including grain volume, add heated water when necessary once grain removed).
Mash grain with spoon.
Insulate with quilts. Mash temp start 72°C. 60mins.
Mash grain with spoon once at approx 30mins.
Temp 67°C at 0mins.
After removing grain bag, added approx 9L water, pressed grain bag to extract maximum infused liquid. Temp dropped to 58°C. Took 90mins to reach 100°C!
Start 60min boil, added hops as per schedule. A Hop ball started bobbing up, need extra washers or other method to keep near bottom of basket.
Added immersion cooler 10mins boil. Chilled wort from 100°C to 25°C in 20mins. (need to figure method to enable fitment of lid over piping and install cooler into kettle without hitting thermometer).
Transferred to fermentor with racking tube, 35L.
A lot of grain particles in solution, maybe from extra extraction with spoon?
Rehydrated 2 x yeast packs with 250ml water.
