  Thanks for the advice, I successfully (I think) bent the freezer section down today. The only
  problem I had is where the thicker diameter coolant pipe comes into the actual freezer panel
  itself. The t...

  Remember that if you took the preboil SG at above about 100 degrees, that correcting for
  temperature is still inaccurate. In order to get a good reading, the sample must be cooled to
  under 90 degrees ...

  Your OG is WAY low... That sort of loss of efficiency seems strange. Did you stir your wort
  before measuring? There can be stratification when you're sparging, and maybe you just measured
  the late run...

  If this wasnt your first AG batch and you previously had some consistency with your efficiency,
  I would look into how you took the gravity reading and it's calibration.If this is your first
  batch doin...

  How are you measuring your gravity?Using a Hydrometer and adjusting for Temp and hydrometer

  For some reason this weekend when I brewed an all grain batch it came out way different that I

  nothing in it f...
