Yes it is,
My goal of having in my brewery 1,000 bottles of ale,
is not really working out.
It would if I didn't drink ale,
but I do.
Several times the homebrew hoard has approached 400,
but then slipped back.
Today I have more than 500,
if the 3 full primarys and 3 full secondarys are counted.
But by the time they are bottled I will have drunk two of them!
I am realizing the futility of bottling lies in:
not that it is too much work, I love work and do it well.
I just can't brew enough beer/ale to supply the demand {mine}
unless I go to kegging.
This is a fact in that I have tried to bottle my brew and just me,
living alone but for my hound and my horses,
drink more than I can produce unless I speed up the process somehow.
Yes, 1,000 bottles are a lot of bottles.
It takes a lot of time to fill 1,000 bottles,
time I could spend brewing more.
I have a temp. controller already,
and a big chest freezer I am on the lookout for.
Then but for corney kegs which will hopefully happen this summer,
I will make the transition from bottling to kegging.
Hell, I stay home all the time anyway,
A draft right here in my office on my desk.
Life is good,
now to try this thing out,
