  • Mashed at 151° for 60 minutes.
  • Boiled 120 minutes due to large sparge.
  • Pitched yeast at 60°F.

Comments

A bit more than usual left after a 120 minute boil. I probably could have done a 150 minute boil to evaporate that extra .5 gallon...oh well. This accounts for the lower than expected OG (January 4, 2009).
