I achieved a OG of 1.093 which was just about on target.
I used a modified Deathbrewer technique. Instead of mashing in the pot, I used a narrower grain bag and laid it in my Playmate cooler and after the mash I sparged twice over the bag. A little messy but it worked. Temps held pretty good for the hour, only lost a few degrees.
Can't wait till October to drink this stuff.
