this doesnt even look right...
I am doing a BIAB Kolsch as a partial boil. This was the plan as I saw it through the Recipator.
kolsch
Brewer: kjh Email: -
Beer: kolsch Style: Kölsch
Type: All grain Size: 5 gallons
Color:
3 HCU (~3 SRM)
Bitterness: 25 IBU
OG: 1.048 FG: 1.008
Alcohol: 5.1% v/v (4.0% w/w)
Grain: 8 lb. German Pilsner
1 lb. Wheat malt
Mash: 70% efficiency
Boil: minutes SG 1.060 4 gallons
Hops: 1 oz. Perle (8% AA, 60 min.)
This plan calls for a pre-boil gravity of 1.060, boiled down from 4 to 3 gallons and topped off with 2 gallons of cold water.
I actually ended up collecting 4.5 gallons to kettle and my pre-boil gravity ended up being 1.070.
Am I crazy? Or did I just step-mash BIAB a 90% efficiency wort?
