I am thinking about removing the Munich and adding .5-1 # biscuit. Thoughts?

I also need almond extract.Or should i use a almond liqueur?What would you do?
My biggest problem right now is i am 4 pounds over what my mashttun can hold. so just except the lower ABV or add sugar/ Light malt extract??
 
This idea is so terrible that over 100 people have nothing to say.
great forum... cant even dignify my begging for a response. God forbid someone wants to talk about something not an IPA.
you guys are all ****in whack.

i just don't see how this has anything to do with a rainbow cookie.

50 pounds of rainbow cookies

15 gallons of water

yeast.

that's how i would make mine.
 
and you would make crap.

I think most have avoided making any comment because they'd have nothing constructive to contribute.

Nice.

My momma always told me "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all". I think this is what happened here.

The idea to me was so repugnant that I couldn't think of a single positive thing to say.

Getting mad and namecalling because no one come in with anything positive (or negative) really isn't going win over any converts to the idea I'm afraid.
