On one hand, brewing and allowing the brew to mature take variable amounts of time, but there’s a considerable amount of waiting involved. On the other hand, some brewers have so much experience that once a week would probably be appropriate. IOW, I dunno. Do you think it would be a good idea to add to the monthly thread when it seems advisable?
Adding to a monthly thread would not work. First off it would limit exposure of the thread to other FReepers not on the ping list who might be interested in the thread. There is one survival thread that has gone into multiple thousands of posts. Most FReepers don’t know it exists, it is so well buried by other threads. I am leaning toward a weekly like I did with the gardening thread. It would mean more of a chance for a FReeper to stumble upon it and possibly grow the brewing/wine making community.
