I enjoy making and drinking lots of different beer, but my favorites tend to be Belgian style ales. But then again, there's nothing like a nice fresh IPA.
I won a "best of show" for a Southern English Brown ale, which I then got to help brew at Howe Sound Brewing. London Town Brown: https://untappd.com/beer/320937

Are plastic fizzy-drink bottles an acceptable substitute for glass bottles? In my mind, the oft-repeated claim that scratched platic can harbor bacteria is a little dubious. If the bacteria can get into the scratches, I would think sanitizer is going to get in there too when you soak. |

How do I do a decoction mash? How do you decide which "portion" of the mash you remove and boil? Do you remove the liquid part and boil it? Or do you remove a mass of soggy grains and boil that? I've had a hard time understanding decoction mashing in the past because "boiling" seems like a strange term to use to describe heating up a mass of soggy grains. |

How do I cut my extract brewing cost? It would be interesting to see a cost break-down for either or both of you two. |
