Brewed this last night (partial mash recipe)....Went with the 1056 for the yeast, and I split the extract portion (3# extra light & 3# light DME). Because of my kettle size I couldn't follow the mashing instructions with regard to mash volume but was able to mash around 155 - 160 for 45 minutes with about 1 gallon.
OG: was difficult to get accurately because despite my best efforts there was still a ton of hops in suspension, but my average reading was in the area of 1.075ish
Color so far looks close to the 5 - 5.5 area which I was worried about achieving initially (will post a picture later today). I can't find an official SRM number anywhere on the real sip of sunshine so I'm going off of the OP listed SRM.
Super excited for this one...Now the patiently waiting portion begins.
