hey brewers -
I’m having a little issue with my all grain set up where my efficiency absolutely stinks and I’m not sure what the deal is. Hoping for some pointers.
My fermentables were as follows:
15lbs Golden Promise
1.5lbs flaked wheat
1.5lbs flaked oats
Mashing for 60minutes @ 165 degrees
OG I’m caculating is around 1.089
This is my second time brewing this grain bill. The first time my OG came to 1.062 And I used a bag (for easy clean) for my mash tun.
2nd time was even worse. OG 1.056. AND I even added a half pound of lactose to my recipe at 10minutes.
So any pointers? I’m stumped why efficiency is so bad on this grain bill. I just brewed another all grain cream ale and had no issues hitting the expected OG
Tips would be appreciated!
