Notes

Very slow direct fire ramp from 146 to 160 over about 15 minutes. After about 15 mins at 160, pulled 2 gal THICK decoction and began to warm it. Ensured main mash stayed at 160 after decoction grain removal. Boiled decoction about 20 minutes and added slowly back to main mash.

2 gal thick pull is approx 30% decoction.
