Hey everyone,
Just brewed "Denny Conn's Bourbon Vanilla Imperial Porter"
Type: All Grain
Batch Size: 5 gal
Total Grain lbs: 17.75
Anticipated OG: 1.086
Anticipated IBU: 31.8
Mash: 150ºF for 70 min
Sparge Water: 165ºF
Boil Time: 90 min
Brewhouse Efficiency: 73% (denny's, not mine)
Grain Bill:
Maris Otter 11 lbs.
Munich Malt 2.5 lbs.
Brown Malt 1.5 lbs
Chocolate Malt 1.25 lbs.
Crystal 120L 1 lb.
Crystal 40L .5 lb.
Hop Schedule:
Magnum whole .65 oz @ 60 min
Goldings E.K. whole .40 oz @ 10 min
Whirlfloc @ 15 min
Yeast: US-05
After boiling 8 gallons down to 5 the gravity was 1.104
I triple checked everything and definitely followed a recipe for making 5 gallons.
What kind of efficiency is this? Because I didn't take gravity readings pre-boil will I not be able to figure this out?
While gathering the wort I tasted it and it was incredible. Can't wait to drink this thing next winter.
