Ended up @ 5.5 ABV.
Pre-Boil Gravity Was a 12 BrixO.G. was 14 Brix--- Hydrometer 1.057 @ 86 Degs. Calculated @ 1.058...... F.G.1.010
5.5 ABV
Changed the boil volume to 7 gals. also used WLP001 this time...competition brew.
I raised the mash temp. to 155*, left everything else the same
Stuck Sparge half way through the starting mash and i don't know why. O.G. was 1.056 and F.G. was 1.013 ABV @ 5.63%
Better than usual efficiencies with this brew, don't know if it was the grind or me double sparging the grain. I poured half of my sparge water @170 deg. and let it stand 15 mins. and then vorlauf. Then last half of sparge water I trickled @170 deg. over the top of the settled grain bed into the boil pot. I'll try this method again and see if this was the cause.
