Here's the Beer Recipator recipe: Krekow Kommon.
Every brew day is an adventure. For the first time since I started brewing all-grain today I overshot my mash temp by at least 4F. Target mash temp: 152F. Actual temp: 156F. My solution: I added what I guess was less than 1/2 gallon of cold water directly from the hose into the mash. Once I stirred it up and sealed the lid of my mash tun, the thermometer fell to 151 and held there for the next 57 minutes until I began the vorlauf process. I wonder what the net effect of those 3 hot minutes at the beginning of the mash will be. I think I'll go ask them over at homebrewtalk.com.
***Update***
Little did I know when I typed the words "Every brew day is an adventure" what kind of adventure, or nightmare really, was still in store for this Brew Day. I can't bring myself to describe the horror right now, so the gory details will have to wait for a future post -- with pics and video.
