Took a final gravity reading of the Dark Knight which read 1.006 which makes a ABV of just over 3.6% and decided to transfer to a barrel. All went well but the Dark Knight is not quite as dark as I expected. This is probably due to the fact that I only steeped the black malt instead of boiling it along with the malt and hops. So I have decided to rename it the Darkish Knight. Is this classified as a mistake. Not really I think the correct term would be "learning curve". The latest brew is still bubbling along nicely and should be ready for the barrel in another 8-10 days. Not made any mistakes yet. Fingers, legs and well as everything else are well and truly crossed.
