First mash tun experience
2011-06-03 10:35am
First recipe using a 10gl mash tun. Worked really well and was easy. O.G was 1.074. Off a bit but took a gravity reading last night, 1.006 and its still going. Should be around 9 ABV. Can't beat that. I used the Wyeast French Saion 3711 instead of the Belgian per recommendation of the LHBS guy.
