(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)
first ever attempt
started with 33 litres - targeting 27 litres pre-boil, 6 litres of grain absorption (6kg grain @ 1 L/kg absorption)
pre-boil gravity came in low at around 1.043 :'(
added 1 kg light DME to compensate. Not sure if my mash skills are shit or if I added too much water.
Ended up with 26 L of wort. Added way too much water, overshot by 5 litres. Just add 1 extra litre for grain absorption next time.
Looks like its stuck around 1.030 :/ OG was 1.068, probably was 1.062/1.063 without the lactose in it. 4.3% abv? A long way off the expected 6%

Gravity Estimates
Based on boiling 24.70gallonsliters at 1.043 for 60 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.00gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.045.
You wanted an OG of 1.059. It looks like it will be under.
