Thanks for the reply guys,
Ralph, the process has been quiet enjoyable thanks to the forum and all the tools available, would be quiet lost without the check list the only hassle so far is fermenting really need a temp controller for my fridge.
Beachbum - was nearly going that direction with the Cararoma and red but went down the conservative route thought I might have over did it.
the one thing I have noticed about S-04 is it went crazy points dropped from 1.048 down to 1.018 in about 2 1/2 days and only another 2 points the next day
I'm hoping it drops to 1.012
