husk and hull Brew Session

4/17 132F p-rest 144F a rest*added a couple ice cubes to hit temp 156 b rest*added more boiling water to hit this temp. sparge pH 4.8--added 2g CaSO4 and maybe a little less than a gram of Ca(OH)2 to HLT. Trying to see if adding calcium to the water would keep the water from leeching calcium out. It didn't really. 5.40/1.059 first runnings 5.54/1.035 second runnings 6.04/1.015 final runnings 5.48/1.039 pre-boil*Added 6mL phos, got this down to 5.22 5.31 post-boil, 1.047 O.G. KO'd@54F, set temp controller to 50F. Pitched 1L of 3470 slurry from last pils. Pretty easy brew. Volume markings on the new mashtun are nice, but I need to check them for accuracy. There's a little bit of discrepancy between calculated infusions and target temperatures. Also, had to boil on the stovetop, as my LP gas reg shit the bed. I coppered up to 6.5gal try and accommodate the differences in evaporation, but I also think that the corn's ppg is probably not accurate. 4/27@1.009. Will keg as soon as I have an empty. Tasting pretty good.
