Stuck mash today...... You've got to be kidding me! My SG reading was a full .01 off from last Sunday. Can the crush of the grain contribute to a stuck mash? I didn't do anything different today that I didn't do on Sunday, I'm using a 5 gal cooler with a false bottom.
I had more troubles with the CFC, not sure how much wort I lost but I only ended up with about 4 1/2 gallons in the carboy with noticeable debris already gathering on the bottom. It looked like the wort was flowing fine from the kettle to the CFC but it was coming out very slowly and full of bubbles from the hose coming out of the CFC and into the carboy. I think I may boil some DME and toss it in in a couple days.
Another aggravating but this time more successful AG brew....
