Do want, drool. Thanks!

@TinyHands I'm glad you liked the tea idea, it has served me well. I know the feeling behind purchasing a kit. You are at a homebrew store and looking around at different kits all one sees is someone else's work and idea - ultimately someone else's beer. I have discovered a way around this...

@paperairplane I think you and I are on the same page for developing recipes, we just name and approach our steps a little differently. My inspiration phase (#1) and Research phase (#2) are all covered in your first one 'What do I want the beer to be?' and lead right into developing the...

@Washroom_Attendant Yeast amount and strain isn't as easy as just do 'X'. There are several variables, temperature, type of brew, desired flavors, length of ferment, secondary, original gravity, targeted final gravity, and size of your batch. There is also the consideration of weather or not...

I'm doing all grain batches around 5 to 7 gals at a time. But I still couldn't turn down the opportunity to pick up another Mr. beer Kit at a yard sale. $5 brand new in the box!! Came with a 'Light American Ale' extract. Can't beat another 2.5 gal experiment chamber! The experiment...

That is very smart and responsible of him. The Army is big on alchol related incidents. If he decides to investigate home brewing, my brewery is open to anyone who wanylts to.learn!

You might want to look up 'chicha'. Its an old purvian 'beer' that uses corn and spices. There is a whole episiode of brewmasrers in the subject; season one, episiode two.

Execelent! Does he brew?

Wow that is nice! I hope to make something like that in the future.

I did, I boiled the tea with my DME. I had enough tea to brew 5 gallons... teaspoon by teaspoon. It was expensive, especially since I went to Tea-vana. Hind sight I don't think it was the best idea. When you steep or boil tea you are extracting flavors, the hot temperature speeds up this...

I dId this with light dme and earl grey. The end result was very sour and basicaly undrinkable. If I did it agaon I would add some sort of dark grains and hops to improve flavor and preservation. I can dig up my notes on the original brew if somone wants to see. Id like to revisit it one day.
