Notes

Needed to add 3.5 quarts to get to beta rest temp instead of 2
Alpha rest only got to 156 but I think that's ok. Mash ended pretty thin (about 1.6 qt/lb). After sparging, wort sat about 90 minutes before boil. Boiled off more volume than intended and had to dilute. 75% brewhouse efficiency - good!
