its funny how the written word can be so easily misunderstood. i wasnt' being defensive, just stating that i didnt think you meant me.
the benefit of what we do is that we can be creative. altering recipes is something we should all do to (hopefully) improve a brew. Like i said, if the saffron doesnt seem necessary, it can be left out, by choice of the brewer. i don't think i'll be doing multiple batches of this stuff due to cost, but it would be nice to know if the saffron does make a difference or not. I agree with you again, khiddy, as i mentioned in #39, DFH's purpose was to recreate an original, ancient recipe for some presumingly good beer. It worked (depending on who you ask). I'll find out if mine turned out well soon enough, then change my handle to 'midas' instead of 'nbspindel'. ha.
