(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
10/12/19 Hit a starting mash temp of 154.6. Added in the Chocolate Malt with 20min left in the mash, temp was down to 151.2. Ending mash temp was 148.6. Preboil gravity came out to be 11 brix/1.044, this under what brewgr said but I think it will be ok in the end because of the Lactose. I was right got an O.G. of 1.069, this is higher than I planned.
10/27/19 Rack Day. Put the cocoa nibs/vodka mix in a depth charge and transferred the beer though it into the secondary. Got a brix of 9.5, this comes out to be 1.020, giving me 6.4% ABV.

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 7.40gallonsliters at 1.044 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.00gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.050.
You wanted an OG of 1.058. It looks like it will be under.
