And no offense bro,
But Also I find it kind of hard to believe that you read that he paid a bunch of people back a ton of shit after coming back from a near business ending crisis from which he didn’t have to and could have created an entirely new business to avoid having to pay people back, along with you Read the endless praises from users who have had good experiences with him throughout the entire thread, (except maybe at the very very beginning when they always hate on people) but yet you have a hard time judging his credibility based on that??? Did you really read it? Or are you just saying you did? Cuz for your information I was a junior member less than a month ago and joined less than 2 ago and I figured all my shit out by taking time to come to my own conclusion based on comparative research. The only question that really needs to be asked is, “has anyone tested these raws”. the rest of your judgment which should be based on your confidence you will get what you pay for, can be found in the thread... that is if you read it. Someone made a joke like that to me, about doing all the work for me, when I first got here, when I asked a question I could have figured out myself, and it was the most helpful thing they could have done. Because telling someone that’s new, to figure out how to come to there own conclusion based on research, is probably the most helpful thing you can tell someone, otherwise your basing your decision off of single sentence answers, like “yes he’s good” or “I had good experiences” and you have no frame of reference for how he operates and/or what to expect in terms of customer service. Another good idea is to email the guy and ask him the questions you want to ask and see how you feel about the correspondence, again this would be considered doing research. Don’t ask people to fish for you, ask someone to teach you how to fish. Additionally if you don’t know how to come to reasonable conclusions based on research I don’t really know if brewing is a great idea, I mean what if someone just tells you some bullshit? You’ll just take it for face value? Or are you going to comparatively explore different answers to find a common denominator to assure it has the highest statistical chance of being correct or accurate. That last sentence is, IMO, the only way to fish.
But hopefully you read to the end of this just like you didn’t read to the end of my first post where it becomes apparent it’s a joke, and probably just like you didn’t read the thread like you claim. You can’t read half a book and say that it was good because an opinion is worthless without a thorough and complete perspective. And that’s what you get when you ask for 1 sentence answers, an incomplete perspective, from which one can not draw the necessary conclusions to ensure with confidence that they will be satisfied with their purchase. So since your new my advice is spend the time vetting sources, recipes, advice, and suggestions yourself. Don’t just assume that because people have MEMBER under their name that they know all. (No offense to any members that answered or offers advice to people)
Just saying man... Hope THATS helpful....
