We are getting ready to market our house and I have no time to do anything. My 2 kegs are almost empty and when they are, the keg setup gets cleaned and put into storage along with the beer making stuff until after we move. That could be 4-6 months.

I am debating on whether to get store bought beer or just stop drinking beer until I can brew again.

I am half thinking of brewing up 2 batches, ferment, keg, and leave them in the keg in a friends house until I move so at least I'll have some homebrew on ready standby. I am really not sure I can take a Saturday morning to do that!

I am right there with ya. I'm laid off (hence the move) and so I decided to avoid commercial beer until we're settled. Maybe I'll even start running.

We're going to be BUSY for about 2 weeks just getting our house ready to show, and are going to go for sale by owner route. I thought about brewing a batch this weekend, but I don't know...

PintOfBitter - did you work for Boeing? I heard about all those lay-offs. I am in Edmond, OK, so not too far from ya.

I wanted to say - You two were talking about how bummed you're gonna be about not drinking beer at all unless its a homebrew! THAT'S A BOLD STATEMENT!!! I was LOL because I feel the same way! It is hilarious that there are people on here as crazy about homebrew as myself! Good luck with the move.

Cheers

I was with Cessna. They're down to about 40% of their original workforce now, and more layoffs are coming...

is it a local move?

If you are coming south I will donate some home brew. That is if I can take care of my evaporation problem.

EVERY TIME I make a batch the bottles keep on turning up empty... ... DA# two more empty's in front of me as we speak! HUH?


anyway if you are coming to the Stafford / Fred-Necksburg area hit me up and I bring by some Oatmeal Stout.
