I used a # each of the steeping grains and got an O.G. of 1.061. I sparged them twice in a large stainless bowl with the water they were steeped in.

Good mouth feel, good flavor, nice amber head. Final gravity right on the money. Improves every week it's in the bottle. Might make it again. So many good beer recipes, so little time.
