well, done and done, didn't boil off enough so have 22l @35. Ph5-2 didn't seem to effect my effeciency at all, could have been at 5.2 all along. 8)

Need to calibrate my boiler a bit better, I can play with it tomorrow.

Nice recipe, and it looks like it went well. I brewed one called 'Earwig' for the same reason. But, it wasn't in the HLT, it was in the bitter wort as it was cooling down. Fortunately it was a clean earwig.
