I have tasted some IPAs that have a distinct marigold flavor which I am not fond of. I like piney and citrusy but I find marigolds offensive smelling and tasting. I can't figure out which hop imparts this flavor and aroma. Could it be Simcoe? ideas?

I love big hoppy IPA's as much as the next guy but lately I have noticed a hop variety or combination of hops in some IPAs that I just do not care for. They smell and taste like marigolds... yuk. I do enjoy the piney, citrus, grapefruit and floral notes of most of the usual hops. What is...

I saw pics of Yuri Rage's perforated stainless false bottom. This looks like an ideal set up for a cooler mash tun. I was considering doing the same but was wondering if anyone else was doing this and if so, what is the ideal size of perforated holes? 3/32 or 1/16 holes? I tried to send Yuri a...
