Subject: Next batch


I'm planning my next batch and I've decided on an Irish Red Ale. Anybody
here have a tried and true recipe they wouldn't mind sharing? Preferably
all grain, 5 gallon.

Thanks,
Rick Knight

While Craigslist.org is a very good resource that should be
bookmarked, FreeCycle.org is, in my rarely humble opinion, a
far superior resource. It is city, suburb, and county specific.
For Maryland, Craigslist has one entry for Baltimore while
Freecycle.org has 33 entries. Most of the stuff on Craigslist
is 'for sale' while all of the stuff on Freecycycle is 'for free'.
However, Craiglist also has jobs, services, housing, and more.
You should be using both.

I do. I have had more luck on things like freezers on craigslist. I've also had
better luck giving things away on craigslist. It is also very effective for selling.
