I am brewing Pliny:
Questions:
1.) If I am using a 10 gallon cooler for the mash, what should my strike water temp be for the 60 minute mash so my mash is at 150 - 155?
2.) What should my strike water temp be prior to the 10 minute mash so temp is around 175?
3.) I am using 14 lbs of grain, so is 4.2 gallons the right amount of water for the initial mash? I am using 1.2 qts. per pound of grain, is this right?
The recipe calls for 1.1 lbs of corn sugar. When should I add this, at the beginning of the boil?
That is all for now, but I will ask more questions as I go, thanks!
