Greetings Homebrewers!
I have a question about brewing all-grain zapap style, and getting high gravity beers. I tried an IPA last week, and an Imperial Amber today, and did not get the original gravity I desired. Does anyone have any tips or feedback for getting higher gravity. I used 13 lbs of grain for each. Should I use more? Am I using too much sparge water? Today, I mashed 5.5 gallons with 13 lbs of grain, with 5.5 gallons of sparge. Any pointers would be nice to reach those beers of higher gravity. Cheers!
