I don't even feel like brewing anymore tonight.
I put 20 pounds of grain in the MLT with 17 quarts of water. I got maybe a gallon and a half of wort out.
Original Gravity of the gallon and a half of wort? Anybody care to guess?
Would you believe 1.070?
Second runnings look like they'll come in at around 1.004. It's not even worth brewing for a single gallon... or doing a 6 hour boil to get two gallons, besides who the heck knows what I'm going to wind up with? I'm gonna throw the grains into the alley and go get drunk instead.... The grains were from Northern Brewer.
Guess a mill is a good investment afterall... if it saves one batch of barleywine and one smaller beer, I should be money ahead.
