      Hi folks , well I've just done it !!!
      No not that , I just brewed my first all grain beer . I choose a SMaSH beer to keep things simple . It's the forth beer I've brewed the others were 2x kits and one partial extract
      I used
      6 kg maris otta
      Soaked at 70 for 90 mins in as much water as I could getting my 30l pot
      I ended up with 26 litres of wort . With a gravity of 1.032
      I did a 90 min boil ( stupidly thinking it would take that long to get it down to 20 l )
      25g citra for 60 min
      25g...

      Hay thanks for the replies folks (just incase any of the respondants were ladies )
      I did chuck the hops straight into the boil but I poored the brew threw a siv and even though I put 75 grams of pellets into the boil it filled the siv and some .
      I ended up with the hop cloud in the bottom 5 litres . Now it's at 1.5 litres and I'm hoping that the yeast bed will push it lower ( well praying really ) .
      I drained a tiny bit out and had a taste wow the hops taste great . I love hoppy beers imperial...
