Well I’ve been lurking in the back reading all you guys have to say. I did my first all grain yesterday, used the BIAB method, was a little high on my strike temp, 167* then it got a little low, down to 148* for awhile. I did a 90 min mash and a 170* mash out 10 min. 90 min boil. I started with a little too much water and OG was a little low, But the worst thing that can happen is I get a lighter beer than I hoped for. I have to thank eveyone for all the post, even if you didn’t know you were helping me.
Now that you’ve done one AG batch, you no doubt learned a lot. Some more research will help with any problems you had and your process will continue to evolve and get better. Never ending learning curve!
Always takes a few times to dial in on your particular process so you hit your intended numbers. Sounds like you had a good result, keep at it because AG is the best both in terms of cost and control.
