      2. Mash off - Infuse mash with near boiling water while stirring or with recirculating mash system raise temp to mash out at 76C for 10 minutes.
      3. Fly Sparge slowly - once again the brewer should do normal their normal fly sparge regime in terms of adding 76C water to hit pre-boil volumes of approx. 23L and post boil into fermenter of approx. 21 litres  should suffice.
      4. Boil - vigorous boil for 60 mins, with your first kettle hop addition at 60 minutes from end of boil and next two hop additions at 15 and 5 mins from end of boil.
