Brew day 1/4/16. Attempted a triple decoction mash. 125 for 20 minutes; 150 for 30 minutes. Took almost an hour (with multiple pot boils) to get the mash from 125 to 150. 90-minute boil. Had a lot of liquid loss from all the hops; ended up with just 3.5 gallons. OG was 1.064. Plan to dry hop with 2 oz Saaz and 2 oz Tettnang. Transferred 1/15/16 and dry hopped with 2 oz. Saaz.

As I recall, it turned out pretty well ... though if I do it again, I'll dial back the hop bitterness. Aromas were good.
