Oh, and i remember, my last brew i was using 2 qts/lb of grain, and i almost overtopped my mash tun. Well this time i used 1.25 qts/lb and i got much better efficiency. The previous brew was about 70% eff, while this one was 77%. The last brew was my best, so far, but i think this one may surpass it. That is, unless the whiskey barrel, taints my brew. I'd almost rather just secondary in my 5 gallon carboy and add soaked wood chips, so i don't contaminate my beer with whatever may be growing in that whiskey barrel.

Stop worrying about your barrel!
shite's not going to grow with a good soak of Whiskey.
I brewed a pale ale last night with some Simcoe Cascade and homegrown chinook. Came out to 1.056 and it needs to be ready by the 15th for a Christmas party. Hope it goes over well.
