CONDITIONING TIME:

BREWING NOTES: Strike temp from now on 1°C higher for 20 litre batches, 2°C higher for 40 litre batches. 10.25kg of grain with water calculated for a 30 minute boil was almost the perfect limit. Forgot to add the whirlpool hops initially so heated back up to 75°C and threw them in.
