I brewed my first AG batch today. I used the BIAB method with an 11 gallon SS pot. I brewed NB's Caribou Slobber kit, here's the grain bill.
9 lbs Rahr 2-row pale
.75 lbs Briess Caramel 60L
.5 bs Briess Caramel 80L
.25 lbs Fawcett Pale Chocolate
.125 lbs english black malt
1oz US Goldings @ 60
1oz Liberty @ 30
1oz Willlamette @15
using this BIAB Calculator | Beer Review Dude I filled the pot with 8 gallons of water, heated to 160, added grains and held it between 150-155 for 1hr, raised the heat to 170 and held for 10 mins. After the 10 mins I held bag over wort until water came to a drip.
I did my hour boil, cooled wort to 70 degrees and checked my gravity. It came in a 1.041, target OG was 1.052.
Not sure what I did to miss the gravity and was hoping someone could see if I could do something differently for next time.
Thanks for any advice!
