Roasty Pioneer

[ryan]

Got a brew on today. Trying out a pack of pioneer I got recently and some roasted barley that I've never used before. There's a bit more crystal than I normally use too, I'm thinking about adding some more, what'd u reckon?

I usually use around 5% crystal, not really played with roast much.
Have a great brew day :thumb:

oh well.. too late now to add more... i'm nearly done with the sparge.

smells pretty nice and it's quite brown already, i think if i add more it could go a bit too dark for me for a bitter. I'll see how this one goes and adjust it next time. :thumb:

runnings are clear as daylight not a spill of cloudy wort into the kettle so far...
