You don't want to be drinking too much Leffe if you are going to be up into the wee small hours brewing beer.

Half past four! Half past four I tell you!
We have friends coming up to stay today which meant I had to clean up after myself before bed, otherwise I might have finished an hour earlier.
All went well, although my spinny sparger decided it was happier as a static sparger so I had to swap over to batch sparging which knocked my efficiency about. I'll have a proper look at it tomorrow and work out why it wasn't playing.
I was looking for 23l @ 1044 and hit 20l @ 1048. All in all, not a bad first attempt.
I'll post some pics when I get a chance today, SWMBO has me on pre house guest cleaning duty!

I'll agree with that Steve.

It appears you are quite correct!
I had to have a couple of sly tasters from my trial jar, it's spot on. Well, it will be if it makes it as far as a keg.

Good luck with it Bm, it's an excellent brew.
The MO might produce a more authentic colour. I found that the GP produced a very pale brew but IIRC, I've read since that Tim Taylors caramelize in the copper.
All the same, most delicious.
