Notes

Used PurePitch but made a starter too. Brewed with the Brewzilla. Efficiency very low? Added ALL the water at the beginning so is that correct? Mashing with 7.38g is a Very thin mash, but wait - that should make it MORE efficient. Not sure why this is.

Still in the ballpark for a pils though, so we'll see!
