That looks tasty. I have a vial of Ringwood yeast that I can't wait to use...I had very nice results with it last time. Good luck fermenting!

Nice One there Oblivious, 4 hours that is a good time.
I take it you are still using up your 2 types of crystal, or should that now be OB's house blend?
Great looking recipe BTW

Nice work OB. 4 hours is very respectable.
What kind of results does the crystal + munich give?

munich bring a little bit for malty/bread character to the brew

Love ring wood yeast (WLP005), flocks great and aroma to boot.
I have heard it called the yeast that does what S04 promises
Here is a pic of it
