(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
Missed the fuck out of my target numbers. I shouldn't have targeted 75% efficiency in the first place, but ended up with 58%... WTF!!! Totally out of style for a Dobbelbock! Best I can hope for is a Robust or Baltic Porter.
Hit 5 gallons in fermenter dead on, but definitely had much less than 3/4 gal BK loss. Perhaps I boiled more vigorously than I thought...?
Other than missing the numbers, it was a very smooth brew day. Start to finish in ~4 hours. Cooled with plate chiller which definitely speeds up the process but seems to be only good with low hop beers due to propensity to clog.

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 6.75gallonsliters at 1.057 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.00gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.065.
You wanted an OG of 1.063. It looks like it will be over.
