First AG batch

My thermometer was busted, so I mashed at a lower, unknown temperature other than the 152° I was going for. 10 days in, I am looking at a drop from 1.045 to 1.019 in a Dry Irish Stout, making it a not-very Dry Irish Stout.

Here was the recipe.

7.00 lbs. Simpsons Golden Promise
2.00 lbs. Flaked Barley
1.00 lbs. Roasted Barley

1.60 oz. Goldings - E.K. Pellet 5.90 60 min.

Final gravity is 1.008, so ABV is 4.8%.
The beer is very easy drinking. I hooked it up to 8lbs, so the carbonation is on the light side.
