All gone! Forgot to measure gravity but it was good until the end; maybe not 100% as fresh tasting (hard to describe) but representative of the style without any definite flaws.

No major dramas on brew day despite a very full malt pipe and initially slow moving mash. This could have been due to the core temperature being slow to rise, something I’ve only really had an insight into since getting the new temperature probe. Maybe upping the rice hulls from 200g to 300g could help too, but to be honest I’m right on the limit here in terms of volume, so maybe 8% is all we can hope for on an end yield of greater than 15 litres.
