So the SWMBO is totally sick of hearing about it, so I am writing this post...
Today was my first AG brew and I jumped off the cliff with a BIAB decocted Kolsch Style Beer. I followed BrauKaiser's post on Enhanced Double Decoction to a tee and despite a last min panicked change to add another pound of base malt I NAILED my calculations in Beer Alchemy.
Sadly, my efficiency was in the mid 60's; but, for my first AG batch I am not sure I should have expected more. Well I will add to this in several weeks assuming I did not make 5 gallons of rat pee ... A huge thanks to everyone on this forum for the wealth of knowledge I have gained here.
Peace and RDWHAHB!
