You accidentally wrote "emphatically". Pretty sure you meant "sarcastically".
What part of what he said?^^^^ What he said. Meaning JA.
I'm pretty sure you'll see this as another rebuttal, but I hope you'll be able to trust me that it's actually me making an honest attempt to understand.Tal, we tend to be very patient here. You asked for advice, then proceeded to tell us all we were wrong. You posted in a beginner forum. If you're as well versed as your rebuttals to our advice would indicate, then you probably shouldn't be posting in this forum. This thread is beginning to resemble some of the infamous flame wars popular in some of the other brewing forums and I do not like that at all. At all. So my suggestion: Brew your damned beer, make whatever adjustments you'd like to make, and let the rest of us make our mistakes but I do promise you one thing: You will not have to rebut me again.
Of course, no one owes me anything. Never thought anyone did. But why is it wrong to ask for clarification or elaboration when someone gives me advice? That's the only part that I fail to understand here (which is why I'm doing it again, in this very response)I agree wholeheartedly with nosy, I have been following this thread, it isn't everyone else Tal, it's you. Nobody here owes you anything. If you want advice, by all means ask for it, then take it or leave it.
I'm also not sure how it turned into this. This what I'm currently trying to figure out, but I guess it's a lost cause.I'm confused as shit about what are all fighting about.
Of course I may fuck it up. I'm asking questions to reduce the chance of that happening, and to understand if my understanding has any bearing in real life, but yeah - of course I might fuck shit up.If you want to make changes go ahead, but unless you've made it before you're not really going to know what kind of change that makes.
I make modifications all the time, but I also acknowledge I'm kind of winging it and may fuck it up.
Let's all just take a step back and relax.
Brew day will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday. I promise to post pics.Well Tal bout time you got around to actually brewing it up and snapping a pic of this beer its going to be a beauty!
Way ahead of you on that...I stopped wasting any more thought on this thing hours ago.Let's all just take a step back and relax.
Opaque means exactly what you think it does. It means not clear, it' not a color or a shade.I'm sure there are, but does that mean that changing them will make the beer no-good (or less good)? Can't I make changes to a good recipe just to make it better for me?
What will it do to the beer?
And what about adding more oats for more creaminess? Not a good idea?
Really? I thought it just meant the opposite of transparent.
