What other sites do people look at for recipes? Don't get me wrong, HBT is the first (and best) place I look, but just wondering about any other sites to check out.
 
I start by finding a recipe on here that seems to have worked out, and comparing it vs. the BJCP guidelines for the style and the Brewing Classic Styles book. Then, usually I modify it to suit my personal preferences (malt type, yeast type, gravity, IBU), cross check the grain bill vs. Designing Great Beers before I commit to brew it. I have yet to have a single recipe that hasn't worked out the first time, although I usually make a few tweaks here and there before I consider a recipe final.

EDIT: well I did have one total flop but that was because I used de-bittered black instead of Carafa II in a schwartzbier. De-bittered black malt sucks so badly its sale and use should be a felony. :D
