Sounds tasty did it come out red?

[LordEoin]

It's quite a dark kit to begin with.
It sounds nice. I like this kit with EKG & Fuggles

What yeast did you use, it finished nice and low 

When you use ale malt, do you; mash for an hour or do you just steep for 30min?

@ Chris - turned out a chestnut brown colour.

@ Garry - just used the kit yeast. I mash for 60mins in 3L of water.
