Yesterday was Tomato Sauce Mk II in the HLT - um the big pot. Longer boil, 4 hours, no idea the evaporation rate but it's nice & thick & very smooth. Added more cayenne and garlic this time

Cascade ale tomorrow - usual 1.040 and 25'ish IBU

30min addition of Cascade JT?

You certainly are verturing into the dark side here aren't you!

You should chuck 10 - 20g in at flameout just for the thrill of it!

Cheers.

Yea, 30 min - been doing this a long time - like the flavour, all late hops seems a little thin
30min 15 min and 1 or 0 min, dry hop 1g / l

As for thrills ? Well that was the handfull of chocolate !
