Could Have Been Worse

Well, that wasn't exactly an ideal brew day, but at least I learned some things about my system from it. I hit 1.036 and 5.85 gallons going into the boil, which was 3 points high and 0.15 gallons short. Which isn't that bad. But with a 90 min boil I ended up with about 4 gallons at 1.046! That's 13 points above my targeted OG. So time to do some more work. Boil up a gallon and a half of water to dilute the wort. Cooled it down (but not enough) and mixed into the wort. I have the wort sitting in the fermenting fridge to bring the temp down to around 64 before pitching the yeast.
So brew day went a bit long, after not accounting for the 90 min boil (whoops). But no biggie. I'm really excited for this beer, it looks really nice.
