Yeah, on the last page someone told me 1# DME = 1.1# LME. With that, my 6# LME needed the water to be scaled down a bit. I just dunno why I'm so far off target. . .
BTW, after 4 hours 45 mins the fermentor is bubbling (only every 38 seconds).
I only did the carapils for 30" between 150-160, closer to 160--that's the only thing that could buid the body that high, yes? But I'd imagine that's standard steeping times and temps.
