Pretty much entirely relies on where you will be in the city/area.

Maybe a spell of warm weather will "loosen" things up, as well as activate some of the brett? iirc, from Wild Brews, a second Brett phase is supposed to come along after the pedio/lacto and lean things up. Hopefully it breaks up a bit before you have to move.

The latter would suffice, many thanks.

Send me a sample of this. Thanks in advance.

I *love* the sound of that.

For those wondering, this didn't happen. Next weekend (3/3) there is a big brewday at Brians for an Octoberfest. I'll also be brewing that weekend on my own set up (only boiling one batch this time!) so if you had been planning to observe or w/e I think that would be a good time to do so. Also...

I do, but it turns off every 3 hours.

What sort of grain/etc should I bring for my share for this?

I'd be down with Feb 9th or anytime in March. That way I can get in on that Lambic too (if you'll let me).

Hey, so I was thinking of doing Lager yeast for a preliminary batch, thoughts?

There is a guy in the Portland homebrew club I know build an electric system. It's pretty swanky. What sort of info are you looking for, maybe I can pass on your info to him or vice versa. Shoot me a PM or email - j at cobdavis dot com

From us dudes down in Portland, best of luck and we'd love to help how we can.

ha! I figured we'd be using your place only because you've got the massive pot(s). I wouldn't have a problem having them at my place, mostly b/c they'd be in the basement and I live on the 3rd floor. As far as keeping them warm, I'd just planned on putting it in a cooler with a hot pad cranked...
