1.5 q/lb mash thickness. 153 strike temp. 70f temp of grains. 167 degree strike water temp. 17.5 lbs grain at 1.5 q/lb mash thickness takes up 7.96 gallons in kettle with 6.56 gallons starting strike water. 2.18 gallon loss to grains assuming .125 ga/lb absorption. 2 gallons sparge water for 6.3 gallon pre boil volume.
Anyone want to check my numbers on this? I'll be maxing out my 8 gallon pot. Wanna get the best efficiency I can. Thinner mash, slightly lower mash temp, and a decent dunk sparge including letting drip as much as possible and squeezing that bag. 1.5 q/lb is of course the thinnest I can go with my size pot.
