Hi Folks:
I'm new to all grain and tried the "Pliny the Elder" clone kit from Austin Homebrew.
I followed the instructions in the kit but when I took the OG of the wort it was way too low. I should have had about 5.25 gallons of wort at 1.074. To achieve that gravity, I needed to boil down the wort to just over 4 gallons.
What might have gone wrong with the mashing process?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
