Hey Guys,
So i don't know what happened but i tried a mini mash (like 3rd of my career) for a guiness clone.
the recipe was
5.5 lbs of lme
1 lbs 2 row
1 lbs roasted barley
1 labs flaked barley
and according to beercalculus i got like 1.055 OG but after brewing I had an OG of 1.042. I know my efficiency probably wasn't great but that seems like a ridiculously low OG. anyone have an idea what happened?
And im sure i mixed the water ( my oil was only 10L) with the wort well, and it definitly wasn't due to poor mixing of water with wort.
Thanks for whatever input you can give.
Corey
