I don't have access to a hydrometer so I can say for certain what my wort correction factor would be, so I'll be generous and use 1.04.
Original Brix reading from a shaky picture that I have was around 11.8 Brix -- calculated to 1.046
Current reading is roughly 5.8 Brix -- calculated to 1.008...
Strike water was around 165F and after added to grain it was at 152F
Measured with refractometer and I did not know about the calculator nor to ignore SG readings and go only with brix.
Going to check on that calculation and reassess.
Good morning fellow brewers,
Upon attempting my first all grain recipe, I ran into a few issues.
Things I know I did poorly:
1. Malt Crush - First time crushing grain/using my mill
2. Sparge Speed/Amount - Way too fast of a fly sparge
