Did my first partial-mash tonight using the Death Brewer method after several batches of extract + steeping.
Followed his instructions with one modification that I did the 15 minute sparge + heated a tea-kettle full of water to 180 to rinse the grain at the end of the sparge (poured it into the grain bag).
Was expecting to hit 1.052-1.056 on OG and ended up at 1.062. My calculator is saying that I'm 94% efficient and I don't believe it. What am I missing here?
