Ben & I just got the mash on (67c) for this:
i hope this turns out good for you guys but from the looks of things Ben may have had enough beer for now seeing as your messing with very hot stuff
I like the idea of checking your brew with a as you said real beer tbh I think the pub beer is now a little inferier to what is brewed at home given the time and effort put into it....

Well a fine nights brewing, plenty of homebrew, a bit of the commercial, curry, good company, and happy wife & children - in fact a perfect nights brewing. (Did I mention a couple of glasses of red as well). Heads a little on the muzzy side this morning, but I think I stopped just south of a propper hangover. As I was only assistant brewer I was able to take an early lead in the sampling stakes.
