Here's my recipe, it's a variant of the Honey Raisin Beer from Radical Brewing but I chickened out and didn't add the 1.5 L grape concentrate (from a white wine kit) due to the mash getting stuck, then knocking off the grainfather filter and the brew looking much darker than I'd expected. Think my actualy figures were 1.062 OG and 1.014 FG, the software can't account for honey being 100% fermentable and applies the expected attenuation to it too. I think if I re-brewed this with temp control it would dry out a bit farther. Without the grape I'd probably up the hops too.

Sorry about the feedback chaps, life is a bit hectic at the minute so I've not had chance. I'll try and get it out to you all tonight.
