That's a good observation though and I think I am going to have to start on that.<BR/><BR/>I have been thinking about the low OG and I realized that the fact that I batch sparged my have contributed to my low efficiency. No big deal though, I am not too far off from the style and I made my efficiency adjustments in Beer Smith.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the input.<BR/><BR/>CheersTravishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293454329758079937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22399565.post-49508984243636140392007-06-19T21:47:00.000-04:002007-06-19T21:47:00.000-04:00With the mash temp on the high side and the gravit...With the mash temp on the high side and the gravity so low I wonder how this one will turn out. Maybe the high conversion temp will aid in the flavor and body after the yeast chews through everything. <BR/><BR/>Also, did you adjust the hops to stay close to the same BU:GU of the recipe's .46? I guess then that would be around 19-20 IBUs. Anyways...just curious. Sometimes when my gravity is pretty far off, I'll quickly recalculate the hops to compensate...during the "hot break" period. A little long on the boil won't hurt anything. Then agai, I guess a little DME could also help in the very end too. Don't mind me too much.Ted Danylukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416906043519452478noreply@blogger.com
