Jan 23, 2011 at 20:32 | comment | added | baka | I don't actually know. It may be something I heard, or something that I misheard and filled in the blanks with bad info. I was just listening to some Brew Strong archives a couple of hours ago, and in the Head Retention episode, McDole mentioned that he got better head retention when he didn't skim. I may have just projected from that. | |
