Hi HBT,
Homebrewer of about a year here. I've been lurking the forum for a while, and this is easily where I've learned the most information from such a vibrant and active community. My beverages have greatly improved over the course of 30+ batches. So this is partly a long overdue thank you to...
Brewed a 2.5 gallon batch of a Briess/Citra SMASH IPA, and guided a friend through his first brew, a dunkelweiss. Pitched Safale US-05, was working hard within 8 hours, smells great!
