Notes

Mash start temp 175 for 1 hour, Sparge at 180. Run 1 gallon before Sparge and slowly readd first runnings to mash grain bed. Slowly add Sparge water evenly to grain bed. Keep waterlevel below grain bed top. After your kettle is filled to 7 gallons for 6 gallon batch or 6 gallons for 5 gallon batch start your final boil and add hops accordingly. Great great beer. I plan on brewing more than once. Probably my favorite so far.
