Today I'm brewing a BIAB all-grain batch based on a recipe for Reissdorf Kolsch I found in the book Beer Captured.

Here is my Recipe and Pro
This is for a 3 Gallon Batch

4.35 Gallons Water to start with

4.5lb German 2 Row Pilsner
.75 lb  German Wheat
 .5 lb Munich Malt 10L

Mash Step 1: Brought water to 126F and added grain to bag in pot - let rest at  122F for 20 minutes
Mash Step 2: Brought water to 148F and let rest for 90 minutes
Mash Step 3: Brought water up to 168F and let rest for 10 minutes

Removed grain and squeezed as much as possitble out.

Took a pre-boil Hydrometer Reading: 1.04 and Refractometer Reading: 12.5 brix

Brought water up to the 3.96 gallon mark in the pot and brought to a boil

Boiled 60 minutes

Hop Schedule:
.75 oz Tettnanger 4.0 at 60 minutes  then .
.30 oz Cascade at 15 minutes
1 tsp Irish Moss at 15 minutes then
.30 oz Cascade at Flameout

Post boil Hydrometer Reading: 1.062 and Refractometer Reading: 14.5

Icebath cooled in order to conserve water (besides, it's summer - the hose water is about as warm as the wort)  I was going to to No Chill, but I am leaving on vacation tomorrow - so I wanted to get this into the fermenter today.

Pitched the yeast I saved from the previous batch Wyeast 1007 German Ale

Batch went into the fermentation chamber at 63F
