Curses, I'm brewing a Wit tomorrow, opened up my container of chamomile
flower petals that I painstakingly plucked this summer, and discovered they
are turning an unsightly brown colour. The fresh chamomile aroma is much
degraded. Use or discard?

Thanks
Brian

Hi Brian!

Welcome back, man! Gald to hear you're still brewing! But get rid of
the chamomile....

You know, I was hoping you would say, Hell, all my chamomile turns brown,
but it still does the job... but deep down I knew it was toast. The Wit went
Witout (ha ha, sorry Mike). ;-)

Yeah, I devoted too much time to wine and its time to get back to boiling
things. Two of my taps have run dry, and that's just a bad thing. Stout
tomorrow (give that dry 1056 a go), then gotta figure what to do with my
limited edition De Koninck and Pacman yeasts.

Cheers
Brian
