Kinda grey day in Sept....watched hawks beat the Steelers which is always good. Think Mash conversion was a little off...too much water - thin mash density. Was really low preboil, added sugar and was still low by .005 from what I expected. Still experimenting with the Foundry but at least we verified the .5 gallon / hr evaporation rate. DID a No sparge mash and that might have been part of it too.

Two smack packs of yeast. Flawless brew day cool temps (59 or so). Will name this one something related to Pearl Jam to honor their induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of fame last night. Despite the added DME, we missed target gravity by .008...didn't check the mash temp prior to sparge so I don't know what I can do about that. After calibrating the refractomer, I saw the same gravities on both the refractometer and the hydrometer so that is super cool.
