Notes

Mash 1 = 9.15 lbs
Water = 6 gallons -> 5.6 gallons
Strike = 159F -> Mash temp = 153F

Mash 2 = 2.90 lbs
Water = 1.20 gallons -> 0.75 gallon final
Strike = 161F -> Mash temp = 151F

Mash 1 = 9.15 lbs -> 2.62 qt/lb
Mash 2 = 2.90 lbs -> 1.65 qt/lb


Final boil volume = ~6.3 gallons
Post-boil volume = ~5.5 gallons

**Split grain proportionally based on mash size!
