November 3: PHX late add

**olllllo** · 11-02-2007, 04:04 PM

I know this is a late add, but....

Not Necessarily Teach a Friend to Home Brew Day as the guy I was going to teach might not be able to make it.

So it might just be:

Relative Strangers Meeting For the First time IRL and Hanging Out While I Brew, etc.
or Maybe you can bring over your brew stuff and brew as well IDK.

But in any case, I'll be brewing 2-3 batches all day. If some one wants to brew in my backyard, we'll see how we can accomodate that.

Here's what I know for sure:
I'll have 3 beers and Apfelwein on tap.
It'll be SWMBO free.
I'll be nice and sunny (89°F).

Send me a PM and we can fill in the blanks.

IN!

(in spirit

)

Wish I could be there. I was almost able to be in your neck of the woods (slightly) this weekend anyway, but plans fell through. SWMBO is in Vegas for some training, so I was gonna fly out there, but it turns out I have to be in Asheville Sunday night now.

Anyway--sounds like a fun day! 2-3 batches? YIKES!

Well damn it....with the ASU game and me working tonight.....

I would have loved to have a little home brew instruction. Heck I still haven't made my first batch yet, just finishing getting all the stuff together...

I got a late start due to a hangover. Since I had no responses, it was no big deal. So far I managed to brew a pot of coffee.

I doughed in about 45 min ago.

Still will get 2 batches in today as well as some general keg cleaning, etc.

Not this time man but I'll be travelling to Scottsdale in mid January. Maybe we can catch a beer.

Sparging a Vanilla Porter right now..

**olllllo** · 11-03-2007, 11:11 PM

I'm about ready to sparge my second batch. Taught myself a few things today about being organized. Kinked my pump hose so my plate chiller wasn't very efficient for the first several gallons. It's in a water bath now to get the temps into the high 60's so I can pitch.

Do this again soon and count me in

I can't believe I'm reading this on the 4th of November!

Yeah, sorry about posting this so late.
My wife had a last minute trip and so it semed like a good opportunity to brew.

I finished the second batch and cleaned up just as she got home.
Thanks for posting here, guys. For awhile it was just me and Neil (Young) brewing.
