Mash Notes
Strike in came in high because of boiled oats adding to the temp (duh). Added 2 qt cold water to bring down to 150¡F. Sparged with 3.5 gals at once, efficiency may have suffered because of it.


Boil Notes
Boiled for 120 mins to reduce the volume to 5 gal to allow for additional 2L starter. First hop addition was 20 mins into the boil, the rest as per schedule.
