This is my second BIAB brew (have been doing extract before this) and I'm getting a really fast fermentation on the Kölsch I made on Sunday.
Brew session info:

The fermentation graph starts recording at ~9PM on Sunday, but I technically pitched the yeast at 2PM. Didn't sort out the connection between Tilt and BrewersFriend until I was done cleaning.
Here I am 4 days later and the beer is at FG.
I'm using Wyeast 2565 (Kölsch) that I did a yeast starter with (~2 liters).
I did a pretty fine crush on my grains, my mash temp started at 149.5 and was at 143.4 after 90 minutes.
Pre Boil Gravity was 1.040, Post Boil Gravity was 1.062.
I'm not complaining about the quick fermentation, just wondering what could have contributed to it. Maybe i had too big of a yeast starter? I did a 1.5x pitch rate.
Thanks
