Great thread and I'm glad I found it since my wife really just doesn't care about my work in the realm of science. Yet she will sure as hell drink it.
I got my CO2 tank and my nitrogen tank filled. I also purchased ingredients for an Irish Red I am brewing tomorrow.

My grain came in for the next two batches after the Trappist I am doing this weekend. I love opening a big heavy box full of freshly crushed grain, sticking my face in it and taking a deep breath.

Vowed never to post in threads that are designed to go on forever and ever in a pointless endeavor to fill the Internet with more words.
Oops. Damn.

I haven't done anything yet, except this post. Later tonight I plan on drinking beer, but to put it into the context, I plan on sampling my latest batch of homebrew, an American IPA. It is almost a full 3 weeks into bottle conditioning. It was quite tasty at 2 weeks.

- Bottled and drinking:American IPA, a little over-carbonated in the bottle. Not bad if you let it settle out
- Bottled and waiting:All-grain American Lager (first all grain) - Still flat after 6 weeks.
- Bottled and waiting:Irish Dry Stout. Didn't get the water from Dublin though
- In primary:Stone Ruination clone, except I didn't hit the gravity. It is still good though.
Ya know, they're like rabbits, except they do it solo

Thats awesome. I'm an ortho. tech. and work in a busy orthopaedic office. If I started putting my brewing stuff in our autoclave I can only imagine the stern talking to I'd get.
I just ordered the ingredients to make Yoopers House Pale Ale.

I started my last step in my 1056 (wash yeast) starter for tomorrows brew session.
Went to the local dairy and bought eight 5 gallon buckets for $1.50 each.
Stopped at the dollar store and got 4 containers to store my specialty grains.
Tomorrow I hope to get two 15 gallon SS pots. Craigslist buy.

This is an excellent book! I'd recommend it to anyone no matter where they are in their brewing.
