Its really 1066, a few points low, I was expecting it low as the Naked Golden Oats were not crushed just blitzed in a blender for a while:

Dregs of my starter WLP550, hopefully it will get going pretty soon:

Nice one, PD. I bet your guests get a bit worried when you offer them a glass of Phlegm

Does that sugar contribute to the colour? and how do you make it?

Good luck :

 

[Tony]

Nice... and a cure for a cold too!

 

[Franklin]

The sugars should give some colour :)
