OK, so I finished my first all-grain batch today. I missed my mash temp by 4 degrees and ended with 150 instead of 154. I had a preboil gravity of 1.046 for 7g and an original gravity of 1.060 for 6g going into the carboy after a 1 hour boil. If I understand things right that gives me an efficiency of 82.76%. I was expecting only 65% or so being the first time and all. As far as missing my mash temp I know what I did wrong and what to change for next time.
This was batch sparging and crushing my grains at home for the first time using a JSP mill.
