Brewing with other people....
Can't see the batch to batch consistency got better, but brewing with new brewers is always fun for me.
Stopped drinking??? Really... I make a point to drink the style we are brewing. If we brew at 8am we drink at 8am...
For me it was priming with DME instead of sugar. I did a few split batches and found the ones primed with DME were consistently creamier, better head and more "professional" feeling.
But, I'm just now shopping for a chest freezer to use as a fermentation chamber so we'll see what my answer is after my next couple batches.
