I have been responding in one manner to several posts lately, and I am sure that I piss some perfectionists off. My motto has been simple; get close, enjoy yourself, and it will be beer.
Recently, I hit the 200-gallon mile marker with my homebrew addiction. The biggest thing I have observed is that 99% of the time, I make beer. Sure, we like to repeat the great brews with consistency. But, what if we always make a new and exciting beer by trial an error and a little bit of slop???r-- that is okay too.. friends will likely drink your brew, and you will feel good sharing your hobby.
Don't get me wrong, I have a few brews that I make consistently, but one thing is for sure.. if I miss a mash temp, ending volume, OG of FG--- I do not fret.. I just drink and enjoy.
