Based on this https://www.morebeer.com/products/chocolate-hazelnut-porter-jamil-zainasheff-grain-kit.html but scaled down to 3 gallons. Came closer to 2 tho. Lost more than expected to boil, I guess.

I did end up dumping the whole kettle thru a funnel. Didn't want the hop debris but oh well. I'll rack to 2ndary and it'll be fine.

Yeah, I use a hop spider and whirlfloc with the whirlpool arm to limit the solids transferred and it works quite well.
