Rounded off the BOM, including the Northern Hops to 1 oz from .07 (that put me over a little on compliance). Single step mash 60 minutes at 152F. recirculated 45 Min and sparged 170F 60 min. 60 min. boil added the sugar 30 minutes in. After reading some rants on the site about how we should not add sugar I kinda felt bad, but that went away. Maybe honey next time.
