Efficiency Specifics
Recipe Efficiency Setting: 65 %

With sparge water, mash water, additional infusions, vessel losses, top-up
water and evaporation rate recorded in the Water Needed Calculator:

Target Volume (Gal): 13.51      
Estimated OG: 1.044 Plato: 10.84

Raw Pre-Boil Targets - only targeted volume/gravity and evaporation
rate taken into account:
Target Volume (Gal): 11.76      
Estimated OG: 1.050 Plato: 12.38

Post-Boil Targets:
Target Volume (Gal): 10.00      
Estimated OG: 1.059 Plato: 14.46

Recorded Actuals - Measurement Taken In Ferementer:
Recorded Volume (Gal): 11.00      
+Losses (Gal): 0.96      
Total Volume (Gal): 11.96      
Recorded OG: 1.049 Plato: 12.15

At 100 percent extraction from the maximum mash potential:
Total Points: 90.45
Points From Mash: 90.45
Points From Extract/Sugar: 0.00

With the recipe efficiency setting, you should have achieved:
Total Points: 58.79
Points From Mash: 58.79
Points From Extract/Sugar: 0.00

Actuals achieved were:
Actual Points From Mash: 58.60
Actual Mash System Efficiency: 65 %


Fermentation Specifics
Pitched From: Slurry
Amount Pitched: 2 QTS
Lag Time: 12.00 hours

Primary Fermenter: Glass
Primary Type: Closed
Days In Primary: 14
Primary Temperature: 70 degrees F

Secondary Fermenter: Stainless Steel
Secondary Type: Closed
Days In Secondary: 14
Secondary Temperature: 0 degrees F

Original Gravity: 1.049 SG 12.10 Plato
Finishing Gravity: 1.021 SG 5.28 Plato



Mash Notes
1) Initial runnings hit 5.75 gallons @ 1.073 2) Second runnings of 7.5 gallons @ 1.033 3) Preboil 13.5 gal @ 1.049 4) 10 gal post boil (lost 1 gallon in boil kettle because of hops clogging mesh screen). 5) 62% efficiency (sigh)


Fermentation Notes
Fermentation started in 12 hours and going strong at 16 hours. Racked to secondary (Keg) after 14 days. 1.021 (8.0 brix).


Problem Notes
Need to get better mesh screen and planning to get false bottom screen to help keep the whole hops off the screen, though I think it was the pellet hops causing the problems here.
