Brewing in winter is difficult. While trying to be prepared I moved my sanitized pump and reverse wort cooler to the garage where my brew pot was fired up. When my 60min boil was done I connected the rf cooler and plugged in the pump and everything had frozen 10 degrees F. I lost some wort trying to thaw my rf cooler and pump. But when all was said and done I only had about 2.5-3 gal of wort to fermenter. Started with 10.5 lbs of grain, dough in with 2.5 gal. and sparged with 5 gal. thought I would only loose 1 gal during 60 min boil? Started with 5.5- 6 gal from lauter tub. Pitched anyway didn't even check the s.gravity any Ideas? Steve
