Add 6.6 g of gypsum to mash water
Mash at 153 degrees for 60 minutes

pre-boil gravity = 1.035
post-boil gravity = 1.041
very low efficiency - next time try double milling the wheat

1 tsp of Irish Moss added at last 15 minutes of boil
2 tsp yeast nutrient added to boil

big drop in efficiency from usual. measuring error?

maintained fermentation temperature around 62 degrees F for the first week, using frozen water bottles, and checking once each morning.
