There has been allot talk lately from people who post on the HOMEBREW forum about commercial beers so i taught  as an enthusiastic home brewer i would dedicate this brew to them, as i doubt they do much if any. Also as they describe there beers that they PURCHASE, id show how as HOME BREWERS we can make those beers at home with better quality.

I believe one of the best stouts out there is O'haras Leann Follain so i'm gonna do a double batch today with another home brewer as i find brew days are best way to learn how to brew. It should be picture heavy so bare with me.

Water is 100% RO. I will add additions to suit PH and water profile. They have hard water in this area as i'm not too far away but they do add Calcium to get that silky smooth mouth feel. I will add it to mash but might also add some to the boil.
