I've made over 15 batches with BIAB. Always right around 75 +/- 2 % efficiency. Last night I made a dunkleweizen and got terrible efficiency. Using a brewhouse efficiency of 75%, I should have had an OG of 1.056. I ended up with 1.044. Grain bill follows.
50% Dark Wheat
30% Dark Munich
15% Caramunich II
5% Cara 120
I had a 122 degree protein rest for 20 mins. 149 sacc rest 30 min. 158 sacc rest 30 min. 170 mashout 10 min. Stirring as temperature increasing to prevent bag/mash scorch.
I do not alter my water, but I've never gotten this bad efficiency before. I've made wheat beers in the past and they've come out fine. Any ideas on why my efficiency was so bad?
