It's burping through the airlock twice a second this morning.

This is the first of three bitters I have planned: all with the same grainbill but using different hops.

What are the hops you want to do for the next brew? Can you share a picture of the beer? What was the final gravity? Would you use some crystal malt in future?

I've got several different British hops to use in future batches.
Final gravity was 1.010. No picture as it's all gone.
I don't normally use crystal in ordinary or best bitter.
