pre-boil gravity is 1.053. Target was 1.057. Mash efficiency was 85%. Had to dick around with the correct mash temp. I added some boiling water to increase temps and it was too high, so i added some cool water and it was right where i started. Mashed at 149-150. Wanted to mash at 151. Oh well. I'm excited for this brew.

Starting the boil now. From mash to collecting the boil pot wort (7.62 gallons) it took me 2.5 hours (75 minute mash).

Boil it a little longer for that extra few tenths.
