Brewing Tomorrow

After about as much DIY and painting as I can stand on my week "off" I finally get to do a brew tomorrow.

So tomorrow i'll be having a bash at this one:

Toecutters Twist

5000gm Pale Malt (MO) Grain 98%
100gm Crystal Malt Grain 2%
26gm Fuggles [4.90%] (90 min) Hops 12.6 IBU
35gm Styrian Goldings [3.00%] (90 min) Hops 10.4 IBU
30gm Styrian Goldings [3.00%] (15 min) Hops 4.6 IBU
50gm Styrian Goldings [3.00%] (0 min)

It's a variation of my TLC Twist recipe a friend of mine tried the TLC and enjoyed it but said that he'd prefer it less bitter and to have more Styrian aroma. TLC Twist is normally around 37 EBU (by Beersmith calcs) this one should give me 27 EBU i've also upped the steep Styrians from 25g to 50g so I hope this will give me what I'm after.

Working at 75% efficiency i'd get OG of 1046 (4.4%abv)
