    I think Matt's recipe used a bit less grains of paradise and a lot less chamomile than 1oz... a little goes a long ways there. Also cannot recommend high enough the WLP400 / 3944 Witbier strain, this is the primary Celis/Hoegaarden strain. It has lots of great clove and not as much pepper as 410, that strain is saison-level fresh white peppery.

    Well actually english is not my native language, sorry If I do any language mistake: Have to say, I saw her in some of your beer evaluations, and almost always notice she has much better smell sense than you and is also good relationing the aromas with something that exists (fruits, spices or whatever), she is a good help in the Catas of the beer. Other important issue, I say a wall with a king of glass fiber insulation, please for your healt, cover that with some plastic, it is enough to just put a thin layer of poliethylen, stapled, then when you finissh the wall you can take it out or leave it (that insulation leaves tiny microscopic fibers that can enter your lungs and produce a disease called silicosis, it is irreversible). And finally, can you tell us, share or tell where we can find or by the manual or recipe book your using to brew the 99 beers you have been elaborating, I'm a fan of the program and also doing some recipes, I have just done 14 but want to try others in the future. Best Regards to all the people in the channel.
