Mold hasn't returned yet but I'll keep my fingers crossed! I brewed a Sierra Nevada Pale clone yesterday with some help from my friends. Good times! We had cooled down the wort post-flameout to 100F, and I poured it into the fermenter, then grabbed the other 2.5 gallon container of water to cold bre...

eagerly awaiting results!

He totally blew me away with the RO/Distilled water for extract brewing thing. I would've actually thought that the makers of LME/DME wouldn't give that much thought to it, and would be using RO/Dis water for their product just to leave the real chemistry options to the homebrewers.

as of half an hour ago, I am one!

Got 82% on the test, got my certificate in email. I think I may have it framed when I get home.

Anyone else taken it? Passed it? Studying for it? Going for Cicerone?

I am SOOO nervous for this!
