You aren't reading it wrong, because I leave out the boiling "mash-out" water. Not sure why I do that, but it's sort-of standard procedure for batch sparging. (I'll go back and add it in) The total water for used to brew this 6 gallon batch was 8.69 gallons.

On the water used you posted, it seems like you actually got more water from your mash/sparge than you put in. Am I reading that right?

It's tough to describe, but I notice a difference.I am not a big organic guy on the basis of whats good for you, from what I have experienced, it's better.Does your LHBS carry organic or do you have to special order it?PS- Just finished the 100...AWESOME!!!Travishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08293454329758079937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3537147682557117770.post-16370982112527427182008-01-10T16:17:00.000-06:002008-01-10T16:17:00.000-06:00Thanks Travis, I use my own code template when wri...Thanks Travis, I use my own code template when writing up the stats here and on a sheet during brewday. I find it interesting to collect gravities at every stage and for each batch, and it may come in handy someday.Organic vs regular 2-row? I take a look, a good whiff and taste of all the dry malts all the time. Visually, the organic looks rounder in shape, a little more yellow and shiny, and Ted Danylukhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08416906043519452478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3537147682557117770.post-40502244381390527712008-01-10T15:29:00.000-06:002008-01-10T15:29:00.000-06:00Great stats!
