Raised temp to 67c for another 10 minutes,
Sparged,
Then added 9 litres of water @ 90c and let that settle for another 10 minutes.
I sparged again and fired up the kettle.
I boiled for 90 minutes.

Mash 4.75 kilos of grains in 20 litres of water.
I heated the water to 74* celcius. My strike temp was 71*C with a mash temp of 66*C
I let that rest for 60 minutes before adding another 15 litres of water @ 90*C
I then let that rest another 15 minutes before running off into my kettle.
This was a 75 minute boil.
Boil for 30 mins no hops and then add the 2, 25 gram additions of Goldings and Northern Brewer.
With 1 minute to go add the 25 gram fuggle additions.
