I've had it, hell I've made it. Bad homebrew is possible ... but all the big guys giants and geniuses, say most important is ....enough yeast, prescise temp control, racking at just the right time, plenty of oxygen, no hot side o2, etc... then brulosufer and others do pretty good experiments changing temps 12 degrees, when we stress over .5. one half outdated tube of liquid yeast, when we stress over just exactly how many cells we need to grow., no shaking or air of any kind, while I worry if I ran enough o2 through the stone. .. trub or No secondary or no. 15 minutes vs 120 boil . 212 to 70 in 4 minutes, or let it set out overnight..... Ok sanitation is non negotiable but outside of that every test seems to imply that if we get some fermentable wet and near some yeast, we should make prefect beer, indistinguishable from the best most carefully planned and executed beer ever. I know relax, have a hb. I enjoy the test articles but I really have had some bad beer too much bannana and clover, cardboardy, thin ,sweet, bitter, cloudy etc so what really is important?
