Good advice. I'll have a look through and see what people are talking about, thanks.

Thanks for the tip, I wasn't really sure where to start adjusting the recipe so I'll try increasing the Caramunich first. Also my thermometer isnt digital so perhaps that's a good investment for the future, especially if a 1 or 2 degree miss measure makes a noticeable difference.

Nice one, thanks alot. Maybe it's just lack of practice, I have a mash kettle so I can keep a nice consistent temperature throughout. Maybe I'll try fly sparging one day?? I guess there's no quick fix to get the beer I'm hoping for, just practice and tweeks to the recipe!

Thanks, that's already really helpful. Especially the graph! So just so the thought is out of my head, keeping my recipe the same but adding an amount of malt at the end of the boil will NOT produce similar results to raising the temperature to produce dextrins? I'll pop the recipe up as soon as...

This a question from a new brewer. Up until now I have only used recipe kits I've ordered online but I wanted to expand and brew my own recipe. I started with a clone of a black ale which turned out fine but doesn't have alot of body or 'mouthfeel' I read that adding a liquid malt extract will...
