Recipe of the Week: Double Marzen on Blogging with Briess:
There’s no reason to wait until spring to brew this rich, well balanced beer. Two European-style Munich Malts produced by Briess double the malty flavor in it, while small amounts of sugar help to lighten the body and balance its incredible amount of malt character. Keep in mind you may need to extend the conversion […]

All the world’s a stage – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms. Then, the whining school-boy with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like a snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then, a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honour, sudden, and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then, the justice, In fair round belly, with a good capon lined, With eyes severe, and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws, and modern instances, And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slippered pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side, His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

How to be a superforecaster Some participants in the Good Judgment Project were given advice on how to transform their knowledge about the world into a probabilistic forecast – and this training, while brief, led to a sharp improvement in forecasting performance. The advice, a few pages in total, was summarised with the acronym CHAMP: ● Comparisons are important: use relevant comparisons as a starting point; ● Historical trends can help: look at history unless you have a strong reason to expect change; ● Average opinions: experts disagree, so find out what they think and pick a midpoint; ● Mathematical models: when model-based predictions are available, you should take them into account; ● Predictable biases exist and can be allowed for. Don’t let your hopes influence your forecasts, for example; don’t stubbornly cling to old forecasts in the face of news.

Recipe of the Week: Simple Cream Ale on Blogging with Briess:
I really like the simplicity of this extract-only recipe, which uses only four ingredients to produce an easy drinking but delicious beer. Briess CBW® Golden Light LME is a nice choice for this almost single-malt beer. This extract, which Briess has been producing for almost 30 years, is made from 99% base malt and 1% […]
