c'mon folks! A little feedback?

Have enough ingredients sitting around for a 2.5 gallon barleywine. Could be enough to do a full 5 gallons of a smaller beer, but I've got some 3 gallon better bottles that i'm wanting to use -- and i want to try no sparge. Anyway, here's what i've come up with based on what i've got at the...

Very interesting...

Any more input from anyone?

It will be five gallon. Maybe something along the lines of 15-17 lbs Muntons w/ .5 lbs biscuit and the majority of the Simcoe at the end of the boil/dry hop? I'm looking for more of a malty IIPA as opposed to an all out American Barley Wine, I guess.

Papper: I kept the recipe off the blog because it's in the book – even though I know I could share it if someone asked. I'll check out your blog Papper! My plan is to post recipes and brewday notes as I brew beers. So basically I started the blog too late to put the Pliny one up. I could...

Take another visit and give me some feedback on the changes if you could, please! Should be better.

My bad, you may have better luck with this. http://homebrewition.blogspot.com/

A little love, folks?

A little love anyone?

Just recently set up a home brewing blog through blogger.com. Don't know how interested anyone is in reading it, or how helpful it will be, but I thought I'd at least let some beginning brewers in here know about it. I'll be documenting brew days, giving book and product reviews and all sorts...
