Hit 150 degrees on first AG batch is that ok?

I just hit 150 degrees is that OK? Should I bump it up a few degrees?

Im making Edworts Hause ale. 10 1/2 pounds of grain. I hope it will work out ok!@

You'll get conversion there. If you're worried about it, you could add a qt of boiling water to raise the temp a few degrees. I'd leave it since it's your first AG. Just take good notes about what kind of temperature drop you had so you'll be able to better calculate what your strike temp needs to be next time.

I put in a little bit of boiling water and bumped it back up to 150.

It went down to 147 degrees after 20 mins.....

I hope it will be OK.

Should be fine. Might ferment out a little on the dry side.
