Notes: - Brewed on 5/30/20
- Mash water = 5.39 gallons (20.4 liters)
- Sparge water = 2.89 gallons (10.9 liters)
- Expecting pre-boil volume of 6.6 gallons (25 liters) or 6.86 gallons (25.9 liters) after 4% wort expansion, actually had 26.5 liters or 7 gallons
- Expecting mash efficiency of 84% (at expanded wort volume) which implies a pre boil gravity of 1.060
- Mash temp settled right it at ~150F
- Hit 14.8 plato pre boil gravity which converts to 1.060 vs. 1.060 target so 86% mash efficiency (at 7 gallons pre-boil) vs. 84% expected. I left the flow valve fully open on the grainfather. Helped with efficiency so going to continue this method.
- Expecting to boil down to 6.0 gallons (after wort cools) so boil-off tool estimates 1.067 OG, Actual original gravity reading was 15.9 plato which converts to 1.065 (should have been 1.066 at new pre-boil volume) vs 1.067 expected.
- After boil had ~6.XX (forgot to track this) gallons (expected 6.0 not expanded) in the kettle and ~6.3 gallons made it into the fermenter. Was very heavy on volumes into fermenter on this batch. Don't need to tilt grainfather again and may need to adjust grain absorption assumption slightly down.
- Pitched yeast starter and set fermentation chamber at 65F, fermentation had blow off airlock activity within 4 hours
- Packaged on 6/11/20, batch #44, FG was 1.010 (at 71F) which converts to 1.011 so 81% attenuation vs 75% avg. and 85% expected
- Fill keg to 51.90 pounds = (1.011FG x 8.345 x 5 gallons) + 9.72 (empty keg weight + packaging hoses attached). Easily got 51.90 pounds.

Notes: JAOM, but with:
1. fermentables reduced to 2.5lb: less alcohol, and hopefully more within the yeast's alcohol tolerance so dryer
2. orange/cinnamon swapped for lemon/ginger
3. a touch of allspice and pepper added

Notes: Step by Step

Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash temperature of 152°F. Hold the mash at around 152°F for 90 minutes. Collect first runnings into boil kettle and begin heating. Sparge with 21 qt of 166°F water, collecting wort and adding to kettle until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons. Take hydrometer reading.

The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add 3 lbs of Belgian Candi and the bittering hops with 25 minutes remaining in the boil. Add Irish moss and Maltodextrine with 15 minutes left in the boil. Add wort-chiller to the boil with 10 minutes left. Add aroma hops with 5 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort to 70°F and aerate thoroughly. Pitch one package of Safale-05 into 6.5 gallon fermenting bucket and add airlock.

Ferment at 67°F until the yeast drops clear. At this temperature and with healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in 10-14 days. Rack to a bottling bucket, add 5 oz. of priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2.5 volumes.

In Brew Like A Monk, one of the brewers recommended mashing out and sparging no higher than 163. That way you purposely don't denature the enzymes and conversion continues until the boil starts. If you're mashing at 146, you're going for a highly fermentable, dry beer. "In that situation, 163 makes sense. I did it on my last batch. I achieved my best efficiency to date and fermentation went like gangbusters. This wasn't a huge beer (1.046 SG) and I nearly had a blowout with 5 gallons in a 6.5 gallon Ale Pail (the kreusen crept up the airlock but didn't quite go out the top)."
