A very nice collection indeed!!! I recognize a bunch of those but there are a lot more that I have yet to try. In the spirit of good brews...

Directions for Extract recipe
1. Fill your brewpot with 2 gallons of water, and heat to 170°F.
2. Steep specialty grains (in nylon or cheesecloth bag) for 30 minutes.
3. Remove grain bag and add Liquid Malt Extract. Stir until dissolved.
4. Bring to a slow boil.
5. Once boil has started add Bittering hops.
6. After 45 minutes of boiling, add Flavoring hops.
7. After 55 minutes, add Aroma hops.
8. After 60 minutes, remove your brewpot from the stove and cool the wört.
9. Sanitize your fermenting bucket, and any other that equipment that will contact the wört from this point on.
10. Once the wört has been cooled to room temperature (75-70°) pitch the yeast.
11. Once fermentation is complete (5-10 days) and the desired beer clarity has been achieved through racking, add the priming sugar and bottle.
