I did my brew today, here is the grain bill
BIAB
2.5 Gallon in the fermenter
3 gallon mash 155
1 gallon sparge 170
5.5 lbs Briess - Brewers Malt 2-Row (1.8 °L)
.25 lbs American - Caramel / Crystal 120L (120 °L)
.25 lbs American - Chocolate (350 °L)
.75 lbs Briess - Brewers Oat Flakes (2.5 °L)
1.5 OZ Flaked Barley (2.2 °L)
Total: 7.17 lb
expected OG 1.073
my actual gravity came out to about 1.048-1.50 Which is way off
I had all my grains crushed at the local HB store
heated up my strike water to 170
placed my grains in a bag and and into the water
the whole pot was then placed in the oven at 170 for one hour.
it was stired twice and the temp seemed to be around 150-155
any ideas why it was so low?
