Notes

19 Liter batch too small for our system.

Had to add 4(ish) liters of water to get enough in mash tun.

Will collect extra and boil off the extra before starting the 60min boil and hop additions.

Recirculate for 15+ minutes to get sparge water back up to 76C before fly sparge. zero loss of temp while recirculate back up to 76 :)
