Lessons

• 25l of water plus 5kg of grain is the absolute max I can fit into the grain pipe.
• Having her mash pipe jam packed full mens three wasn’t much space for liquor to circulate during the mash, hence OG being lower than expected.
• 16L int he FV fills a 13L keg to the brim. 15L should be the new target to aim for,
• I need more lipohop.
