The best part of this beer was the efficiency I achieved. Normally I have an efficiency around 75% but with this beer I hit 85%. I'm not a big fan of Saison brews, but I wanted to try something different. The head retention and carbonation were excellent but the taste was a bit too Saisony for my liking.

Your Said "a bit too Saisony for my liking" that is great LOL because it was a Saison, sezme! I love people who add comments , makes the recipe even more interesting. Tastybrew.com was/a decent site, but I can edit my reciped, read comments, and get a better idea of what I may brew. Hope BrewGr hangs around!

If you could have the default photo match the brew SRM, that would be Pretty cool.

That is actually on our TO-DO list. I liked what you did with your recipes...it really showed how well that can work and we might take a similar approach.

It's been awhile since I commented here, but we added the default recipe photo mug with matching SRM sometime in the earlier part of the year...not sure if you ever saw it.
