Someone can guide me here as to what happened. I mashed in at 163 for my mini-mash. I put the Kettle in a warm room in a comforter that before had good yield. According to beer smith my estimated OG would have been 1.085. My read gravity was somewhere between 1.050-1.060. What makes this weird is that the 7 pounds of DME would make it about 1.060. So could I have really screwed up my hydro? Hopefully I'll be getting a cooler to do my mini-mashes into soon so this won't happen again but I'm just curious as to my error.
