The RIMS worked fine with a 1.1 water/grain ratio (qts/lb). I didn't have full flow in the beginning, but it was at least 80% flowing then. I opened the valve completely about 15 minutes or so through the mash.

|
Dry hopped on Sunday 1/23/05. I roused the yeast quite a bit by stirring, as the fermentation has been slow for the first week. I forgot to drop out the trub, but don't think that will matter too much.
