 +14 litres of strike water in the large kettle;  7 litres in the smaller one.  Grain split into 2700g and 1350g parcels.  Strike water heated to 68\[de]C.  Mashed for one hour, lautered.  Started the boil.  50 minutes, then hops in.  10 minutes, then flameout.

 +===== Result =====
 +
 +A pleasant light blonde.  The citrusy aftertaste was almost lost.  Carbonation failed, because I think my yeast was too dead by the time I started it, so it's flat as a board.

 +Edit:  No.  It was the seals.  I have since updated the seals, and hopefully, those bottles should now do well.
 +
 +Edit:  And now I have bottle bombs. The glass is insufficiently thick. Fifty bucks down the tubes.
