Default Decisions, Decisions...

I recently brewed my first batch of homebrew. It turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself. I have been working on an IPA recipe with the help of a few members here, and I was just about to order all of the ingredients from Austin Homebrew.

Here's where my dilemma comes in. I saw their $20 anniversary sale on kits. Should I put my recipe on hold and grab a couple of their kits? Maybe the extra kits will let me hone my skills some more, and make my recipe turn out even better. But I am kind of antsy to try my recipe.

In other words, what would you do? I think I'm started to get addicted to homebrewing.....

That sale is pretty good. Plus, recipes aren't that special or unique. Saving money is always good

I'd hit that sale if you are saving money and they have a recipe that you would want to drink.
