any luck in obtaining a recipe?

Thanks, Revvy! I was hoping all was not lost!

Well, like an idiot, I started reading Palmer's "How to Brew" after I put a couple beers into primary. I read that aerating hot wort (above 80 degrees) is not smart and will cause oxidation. I whisked the s&*% out of mine at about 120 degrees. Anything I can do now? Or just wait to drink...

MikeSteele, I'm gonna brew the DOZE Black IPA tonight...how'd yours turn out?

I've heard that you can't overdo the spices! I added: 1 t. cloves 1 t. allspice 1 t. nutmeg 1/2 t. cardamom i forgot the cinnamon :(

Thanks, 1234! There are a number of homebrewers in Miss. and even a few organized clubs. We're working on legislation to get the laws changed here but run up against the lobbying $ of InBev and Miller/Coors. No one has been arrested for homebrewing yet, so I'm not too worried ;)

My girlfriend and I are brand spanking new to homebrewing as of last month. We just slammed an Amber Ale with 60oz. of pumpkin into primary last weekend. Getting ready to brew a black IPA and cream ale in the near future. We're excited to homebrew for two reasons: it's illegal in Mississippi...
