    Adding Spices to an Ingredient Kit for Christmas Ale

    usually the lower the number in these times means the closer to flame out so 2oz of hops at 60 means begining of a boil and 1tsp of "XXX" at 3 means it goes in 3 mins before the boil is done.

    Freshops or Hopsdirect??

    Im chiming in for Hops Direct. Their shipping might be slower but I prefer their packaging over fresh hops. Nitrogen sealed mylar bag over a foodsaver bag. Im sure quality is superior on both fronts, I just gotta show love for my HD people lol.

    Whats cheaper?

    I always wanted to know the fuel costs lol. but yea once you buy in bulk it starts getting uber cheap im at $0.48a lb for grain though roughly 4 bucks maybe less for hops. But yeah the savings you might get from brewing pale in comparison to what you actually created. And the fact...

    Hops from Hopsdirect

    I think its fair that hop croppers can finally flip a profit. Hops Direct has superior quality and have been ordering from over the this and last year.
