I'd like to submit this for criticism. My main questions:
Do the crystal amounts look sound?
How about the hops, AAU's?
I've never used honey before....should I add it at the end of the boil, to the secondary or just leave it out? I was gonna mash at 153F, but should I mash higher to compensate for the body-lightening effect of the honey?
