Notes

mashed in at 113 for 30 minutes
raised to 149 for 30 minutes,
Then to 162 for another 30 minutes.
Then to 170 for a long sparge - supposed to be 90 minutes
Then go to boil.......
Actual was very approximate.
mash and boil thermal switch failed. Switched to stove, bags and then a cooler to bring grains up to 170, eventually. Quite a mess.
