Gravity Estimates

Based on boiling 6.00 gallonsliters at 1.046 for 75 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.25 gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.056.

You were planning on an OG of 1.056 so you are right on track. Nice job!

Notes:

This turned out to be my favorite homemade stout so far. Smooth, creamy head, lots of body and a full taste. Not too far off from a Guinness, though I wouldn't know what I might change to get closer to the Guinness taste. All in all, very, very good.
