Oh, I'm usually a lot higher than that. I was running pretty consistently north of 75% before I had to shut things down. Mash tun was ****ed up (how the **** does a ball value get a damn crack in it? if nothing else, this batch will be a test of hot-side aeration). Wanted to check pH, but can't find my strips. Forgot the buffer, which helps me a lot. can't even confirm my gravity, since I lost my hydrometer and haven't been able to verify that I'm interpreting the refractometer right.
Meh, I'll get back into it. If it's not eight degrees and windy on Sunday, might even brew another batch!
