oooo the 50 cent hop ounces might come in handy in november when I make an IPA... I dont know... (I already have like 6 batches in line to be made)

man, only 3 people on the board from around here?

chefchris · 09-24-2009, 05:33 PM

There's a couple more. I know I met someone at The Atlantic one night. And I'm good friends with an excellent brewer (who actually works at the Atlantic), he's a member here but doesn't get on much. I can actually think of 2 people that live here that haven't chimed in.

that's great! I've never been to the atlantic. what's it like? more bar style or more club style?

F-Gainesville!!

Winning all of those Championships, hot chicks left and right, kick ass music scene, and the envy of every college football fan in the country...F-that place.

Lane Kiffin was right about everything that he said! Well, except that Urban Meyer is a cheater and that they'd sing Rocky Top all night long...BUT everything else he said was DEAD ON!!!

...spent the best three years of my life there. lol

I'm in SW Gainesville. Havn't been brewing very much recently; working my ass off and have a kid on the way, lol. The office/brew room has been turned into the 'nursery' so I don't have any room for carboys and cases of bottles anymore...

elmetal · 09-24-2009, 09:09 PM

I'll gladly take them off your hands

or maybe you're just on hold...

Danny013 · 09-24-2009, 09:17 PM

Haha, I'm just on hold now. Do you do AG brews? Sadly, due to space issues and cost, never got up to an AG set-up, it's been extract only for me.

I'd be down for lending out my carboys and a helping hand on brew sessions - I'm always down for learning more about brewing and drinking good hb's.

elmetal · 09-24-2009, 09:31 PM

well funny thing. I do all extract also (with steeping grains) but recently I bought a freezer and kegs and I just bought a 10 gallon rubbermaid that I just made into an MLT (literally 30 minutes ago)

I tested my stove and I should be able to do full boils. I have a 8 gallon pot coming in the mail. so I don't do AG yet, but if you look at my sig, after the beers I have coming up, I will do an AG brew.

should be around mid to late october I think. depends on carboys. I have 2 carboys being used right now and a ale pail being used as well. I have a better bottle in the mail so hopefully mid october = first AG brew

if you wanna comeover and join me for a session me and my buddies should be doing an irish red (the quaffable in my sig) this sunday I believe is the planned date.

I would love to borrow a carboy

I may not need it though since I have 3 altogether now

I don't know if my homebrews are like up to standards to let others drink. lol but you can try and tell me if I've failed.
