The mash pH thread over on AHA...

"Shitcock" is a good compound cuss word. My personal favorite is "Assballs".😁

All kidding aside, the confirmation bias and, for lack of a better term, the flexing and strutting online on how to do things, homebrewing, for example, is a big turn off for me. Just because something works on one person's process doesn't mean it works for someone else.

Their is a lot of good information online about brewing. Also, there is a ton of bad information out their as well. I believe our group, we are a gaggle of seasoned brewers, with a boat load of experience. We have no need to condescend to others b/c they had a question or follow a certain procedure.

Also, none of us claim to know it all, which is a sign of intelligence and humility; something severely lacking in other forums/brew clubs.

The ever ongoing debate about secondary is a prime example lol.

Just keep an open mind 😁
