Brewing Steps:
- Heated 3.7 gallons of water to a strike temperature of approximately 167 degrees
- 1.25 quarts/pound
- Used Sparge Pal app for volume calculations - batch size of 5.5 gallons (maybe go down to 5 gallons so we don't have extra at the end?)

- Added water to mash tun by about 1/2 - 3/4 gallon at a time; poured last 1.5 gallons from brewpot straight into mash tun
- After all water added mash temperature approximately 155 degrees
- After 60 minutes lautered into brew pot
- Heated 7 gallons of sparge water to approximately 175 degrees and added to mash tun
- Let sit for 5 minutes, then lautered until we had about 6.5 gallons
- Added hops according to schedule
- Chilled by putting pot into tub with ice and water (filled about 6-8 inches of tub with water) and wort chiller/pre-chiller to 70 degrees in about 7 minutes
- Pitched yeast (whole 2 L bottle) and then aerated wort by transferring between brew pot and bucket 6 times
- Poured into fermenting bucket (had probably ~5.5 gallons total volume - had to waste about 1/4 gallon or so of excess wort)
