Jumped to the Beerborg---how's the water?

Post by OKRedLeg31 »

While I didn't have a great deal of posts, over the last 18 months, I have been absorbing a tremendous degree of brewing acumen from the old Mr. Beer forum...but alas, the new change for the sake of changing could not stand...I'm happy to see the stalwart and foundational members I most often read and admired, are now here.

And here seems pretty darn good, so far!

Thanks for creating a happy waypoint for those of us still on the newbie brewing journey!

The water's gotten a little warm and appears to have a yellow tint to it. We blame a few of the older members, they say their Depends aren't dependable, and plan on buying this:
