Thank you! I just made my morning rounds of “the plantation”. I have about 400 sq. ft. Of winter barley that will be ready to harvest any day!

Good luck. Yes, the porters and stouts do well with a bit of aging.
You might think about looking into planting some hops also since it looks like you are going the grain route.
Relax...Have a homebrew!

I completely understand.

I have many hobbies but home brewing is to me, the most satisfying.

The combination of science, skill and intuition make it more than the sum of its parts.

I’m not so hard core that I grow my own grain, I’m satisfied with just growing hops. You Sir are dedicated !

Cheers,
