I added the sugar last night and i have just drawn some more off and its 1.002 now. It is showing some fizz and takes and smells good. I'll leave it in the barrel for a week and report back later.

Would certainly check that hydrometer.

A few years ago I messed up a TTL clone as was called out to an important job and had to leave mash to it's own devices. The temp dropped a lot in the thermos mash tun, lagging on lid came off, and i ended up with a highly fermentable wort. The FG went to 1.006 and it seriously lacked body, mouthfeel and taste, not a success! :cry:
