I'd heard about HBT from some guys at the Reno Homebrewer, and after I'd stumbled through a couple batches and decided I wanted to get a bit more serious about this amazing craft, I signed up and started reading. So far I've been really impressed with the vast experience and welcoming attitude among all the users as well as the really great ideas for gear, techniques, and recipes. This place is a goldmine for any homebrewer.
