Lachouffe, strike 2

trying this one again. put down on Saturday night in record time, less than it took Sonic Youth's Sister LP to play.

Munton's Premium Pilsner,
blackrock light malt
light unhopped dried malt, 500g
900g dextrose
8g Saaz hops pellets (all i had left...)
Saflager yeast.

weirdly tho, it hasnt started bubbling yet. either that or the seal on the top of the barrel isnt up to it. same recipe as last time, except that i used a light dried malt and a tin of light, instead of two tins, and less hops cos this was the last.
