    What does up in the air mean?
    There's no starting point. It's just a massive sea of shit to wade through until you find the occasional corn kernel. -DrCurly

    google says an hour and forty minutes, so about two hours.

    Calculated as a 10 gallon batch, used magnum for bittering addition, and the fuggles at 2 min 1.5 oz

    Brew toad didnt have belgian caramunich so I went with the standard stuff.

    interesting.... I kinda like the "kitchen sink" grain bill. Normally I would suggest keeping this really simple, but I like what you are doing here, kind of a "day after Thanksgiving sammich"... and it looks good!
    The only tweak I can see, is maybe cut back a bit on the caramunich... maybe to a pound... a little goes a long way with that stuff.
    Never attribute to malice, that which can adequately be explained by stupidity.
