What is og so low

[metalpysko]

Did a glucan rest, protein rest, beta rest and alpha rest and my og was 1.030 why??????? And I pitched with a London ale oh and it was a 6 row only and 5 hop additions.

Crush maybe...never used 6 row before. What software were you using?

It could be just to fine I did just get a barley crusher and adjusted it I'll work on that

Feeler gauges from an auto parts store work great for adjusting the gap. If you did grind out too fine I've expect a higher efficiency with in turn gives you a higher extraction rate/gravity.

biggest problem might be those pants you are wearing, you don't go out in them do you?
Seriously tho we need to know more about your mash and sparge process.I certainly would expect a higher OG, tho I have never used 6 row before. Like you, the crush might be suspect.

I also did 4 different types of rests I've read about people having lower ogs for some reason
