Hey Oliver, I think the compulsory sign up idea is working well.
Any chance of a few more stickies on common topics? Problems with temperature ranges, questions about the yeasts that come with the various kits, beginners guide to racking/bulk priming, the differences between various sanitisers & a basic guide to steeping/adding grain all spring to mind. I'm sure various members would be happy to write them.
And a links section might be good too, to link to other online resources.
