Wanted to run this by the board and get some feedback. This is my first recipe and first all grain run so any and all advice is welcome.
Style - Pale Ale
batch Size 11 Gallon - Assuming gallong lost to fermenter etc
19lbs 12.9oz Pale Malt 2 row
1lb 1.5oz
Hops
2.17oz cascade - 60 minute
.54 oz Citra 60 min
.54 oz Citra 2 minute
Mash in 7.18 gallons at 168.2 aiming for 156 Mash Temp.
Mash 45 minutes according to Beer smith.. Shouldn't it be 60 minutes?
Batch Sparge 2 steps
1st step 2.18 Gal at 168
2nd Step 6.61 gallons at 168
As i said this is my first all grain and its on our new eHERMS setup. My assumption is that once my grain bed is settled and I lower the HLT to 156 I can start circulating keeping the water just above the grain bed and adjust the flow to keep it there? Should i stop the recirculation and let the temp come up to the 168 for mash out or keep it circulating as it comes up? Any advice here for a newbie in general? while i "understand" in theory im sure practice will be very different.
Thanks in advance for any input.
