Notes

A fellow home brewer suggested using some Special B malt in place of some of the Crystal 80 to bring out some raisiny character.

Since I switched out 1/2 of Maris Otter for an equal amount of Belgian Pilsner, I opted to do a 90 minute boil.
Another switch from original recipe is to drop Amber malt below 20% of grain bill, and to use American Crystal 80 in place of UK Crystal 90.
Late Addition sugar (Belgian Candi Syrup D-45 Amber) is added at the 10 minutes to go mark. Stirred in very well to avoid it sticking to the kettle. Better still dissolve the sugar in some of the wort before adding to the kettle.
