Wait. You're not talking about beer, right?
You're talking about beer. That could have been a whole lot more fun.

Wow- I'm jealous. You got Tasty and Denny both in your thread today.
That's cool.
Wonder what Jamil is up to today?

You know what's funny? I was about to write, "Now all I need is Yooper to drop in.".
Maybe I should mention Jamil, too, for the final crown jewel? And then go buy a lottery ticket!

Dude, if you get the Trifecta of Tasty, Denny, and Jamil, you can die a happy man.
As it is, you can die 2/3 happy as a man.

Wow, 3 for 4, not bad. I'm pulling for you hoping that the fourth shows up.

Through transfers, grain absorption, dead space, spills, and small inefficiencies in my brew day I lose the few extra gallons.
This is how I do most of my batches as long as the grain bill isn't too small. I like my process and I think I make pretty darn good beer.

We do the same - we buy 3, 5 gallon jugs of water. Mash in with 8 gallons and sparge with 7 gallons. We just ensure that we have a couple of inches of water above the grain bed when sparging. We end up with 11.5 or so gallons of pre-boil. It has worked for us so far.
And since I am an English Lit teacher I have learned that math is best to be avoided whenever possible.

As a Fine Arts grad, I concur. Unfortunately, the Siebel and ABG education courses don't agree.
