I was being a bit ambitious thinking I could do two beers last night, or even two today
FInally got cleaned up after 9 some time last night and was absolutely stuffed (although that might have had something to do with Geoff leading me astray on Saturday night). Today I started at 11ish and put down:

Mashed at 65CIt also didn't help that G&G sold me 12mm hose for transfer instead of 10mm, so a few scalds yesterday from hot wort inspired me to make a return visit this morning for the correct hose.
Of course, the proof will be in three weeks when I taste them.
To be honest, if we had the room I'd love to go a "proper" AG setup, but the fact is that we don't have a shed or anywhere to store that sort of stuff, so I guess a BM will just have to do!
Cheers,
Oliver
What exactly are you making here, Tipsy?
