We have loads of new members, so get busy posting recipes and whatnot!

What you might consider simple/basic might open the eyes of a newer brewer. There are a lot of experienced brewers here, so dig out some recipes that you might have posted on "that other site."

I only started brewing this year, so the recipes I have are basic.

Share that knowledge!

I'll try and pitch in soon. Gotta go somewhere .... but I think I will be hanging out in this place ... MrB blew it, and my motorcycle board is getting crummy with politics, arguments, etc.

You are RIGHT. Beer recipes need to start flowing, but fear not ... I'll bet they do soon ........ real soon ..............

OK, here's what I'm brewing as I type this: Stone Levitation. Inkleg and Kelia tell me I have to brew it and since I need a session beer, love Stone beers and have the time, it's getting done now.

I hear you, I've been struggling just to keep up with all the new posts. I'm sure it will settle down and get stuff added there's just a lot going on right now.

Some of the newer brewers might consider posting their info in the basic techniques section. What size brew kettle, are you stove top or burner, what have you brewed so far what would you like to try next, what kind of beer would you like to make next?

That might help get some content going by giving the more experienced brewers a starting place for what to post. Also don't forget a lot of the content was stored on the other site and may be gone forever. It could take a while before that much info makes onto these new sections.

Here is a simple one using Mr Beer extract as a base. Was a hit at a recent family reunion:
Cascades Pale Ale
1 can NWPA
1 lb light DME
.25 oz Cascade 30 min
.25 oz Cascade 15 min
.25 oz Cascade 7 min
.25 oz Cascade dry hop
S-05 yeast
It is a nice balanced Pale Ale. Hoppy but not to IPA levels

Having to sort through at least 3 pages of new posts on a daily basis, I don't think we have any shortage of new content

yeah, this place is more active that a sack full of jumping beans.
