    Do people really need an article to realize that they can do this?

    If you have a Mr. Coffee, you might not have a french press. It's good to know something from the world of coffee can be used in the world of beer.

    I remember a post a while back of some randall-esque contraption that was being sold that was more or less a french press. I said to myself, couldn't I just used my own french press? I haven't actually tried it yet.

    Some people think it's wrong to add even fruit to beer saying something along the lines that if the brewer intended it to be that way, they would have put it in there. I say, why not? Add whatever you want. It's your mouth.

    There is this thing in life called learning. We all do it.
    One might learn something before another. Some people are dicks about it. Others are not.

    I like pineapple wedges to soak in IPA. Best piece of pineapple you will ever have, I guarantee.

    I'm not being a dick about it, it just seems super obvious to me. I mean, if you want your own randall all you need is a receptacle and a filter, that's literally all the damn things are. So any contraption that works as a receptacle and a filter will work.

    I've got some Old Rasputin on hand so maybe I'll try some different coffees in it. Good post.

    If I ever put ginger and grapefruit in my beer, just shoot me.

    I have a press I never use to make coffee. I'll try using it for beer instead. Thanks

    Stupak, apparently I'm an idiot, because I never thought of this. Geez, I must really be a fool that I never thought to use a coffee french press to add flavor to my beer....stupid stupid stupid. /sarcasm
