All those calculators that you have are hugely helpful. I'm getting ready to do my first all-grain batch here in a week or two and I think your site will be a definite go-to for me. Keep up the great work and thanks again for your contribution!! Hey, I just wanted to give you a prop for putting together such a killer website!
