Brewed again on Saturday, 1/20/2018:
Post-boil gravity: 1.055 -- a bit lower than expected.. but... had a stuck sparge that never did loosen.
I had to dump it all thru a strainer, it was a pain! Going to have to see what caused this: some thoughts:
-- Going to have to go to 1.5qt/lb mash water vs 1.25 that I did with this batch.
-- Going to use some silicone tubing as a "gasket" around the circumference of the false bottom.
-- Also going to buy some wire mesh screen to go around false bottom.
