Open Hearth Mild Brew Session

Brew Session Info

2/10/2013
(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

2-step infusion, 140F and 152F, each 30 minutes. Because the sparge water was still heating, second step increased to nearly 60 minutes. Used about 6 gallons sparge water. Sparge water took longer to boil, ran out of propane and had to change tanks. Gravity was pretty low, May need more enzymes ie 6-row to convert the rice starches or just suck it up and pay an extra buck and a half to use malt instead(probably going to do that).
