Thanks Protos i will look into those Beers Also..... Thanks Steverus07 yes lastest brew that was on my Birthday 9th Dec I reduced my bittering hops down even more......I expected not to taste any bitter taste but did so a little..... I will need to look into my water Chemistry like Doug has...

double post sorry

Doug you touched one another good point....I use rain water it had just poured down and had fresh tank water, my ph meter is rubbish and started at 7 and went to 5.5-6 and all over the place(that is just the water not the mash) But if my mash ph was high and i also sparged with 76 degree (168F)...

No I thought it would finish higher like 1.010 ? My last two brews finished at .998 will dark malts retain flavour when the sugars are taken out or just darken the brew

Yes I understand but that will mean im consuming my sugars . I don't mind the dryness at all just trying to get some malt taste and very low sugar. Looks like I may have been mashing to high for a start

Thank you I will check out after work later

Many thanks. So aim for 65. Are you surgesting not to use my enzymes ? I know they are striping the malt taste away but would I get I low finish gravity and very low sugars if I don't use them

76 degrees for 60 minutes ( 168 F )
