NB Honey Kolsch - Modified Brew Session

Brew Session Info

3/19/2018
(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

Full volume, overnight, no-sparge mash. Total mash time ~8 hours (11pm - 7am), run-off and boil w/out sparge. This method was a definite time saver on brew day though. I think I definitely lost some efficiency w/out the sparge. Original kit OG was 1.048 but with the extra 1# base malt added I should have been higher but ended up slightly lower.

You wanted an OG of 1.046. It looks like it will be under.
