The Verdict
This was much better than our first Nut Brown. I'm actually kind of surprised our efficiency so high, its been a lot lower since. I still wish it was a bit Nuttier though. Its a bit too smooth still and needs more of a bite. I'm not sure what that means though, in terms of what to change in the recipe.
