All set up to brew this tomorrow. I still don't know what yeast I'm going to use.

It may be a bit late if you were brewing today but if you're not bothered by a sloght yeasty haze or a loose sediment in your bottles then go for us-05 :)

Looks darker than it probably is but I'm sure it'll be one tasty brew :D
