Brewed this one this afternoon:
.5lb [220g] 60L crystal
.5lb [220g] chocolate malt
.5lb [220g] Carapils
.25lb [110g] roasted barley
2lbs [904g] Muntons light DME
500g Coopers brewing sugar
1 Muntons Irish Stout kit
Nottingham dry yeast
Steeped the grains, removed them as the water came to a boil, added the brewing sugar and boiled for 20 minutes. Added extracts and chilled. Made up to 23lt.
It came in at about 1.070 [ooops....I guess that extra brewing sugar wasn't really needed!]
I pitched the yeast about 3 hours ago, and it's bubbling already. It'll be some sort of stout, just not sure which.
