I'm looking forward to the results of the FWH experiment from NHC.

My take on FWH is that while you seem to get about 10% more measurable IBUs, it doesn't taste like it.  Since I tend to drink my beer rather than just measure it, I count FWH as what it tastes like to me, which is a 20 min. addition.

So many things are much better if you don't measure
