Cherry lambic Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Id like to check you guys out sometime. I just read through your 1 bbl build and looks awesome. I built my brutus style single tier last year and love that. I have it set up 2 run 2 pumps but use 1 for now. Probably will eventually automate it but that will be down the road.

No they didn't have any instock

It's on love 2 brew right now!

There was a difference between the too as I used different bottle dregs and yeast.

The oak barrel is a old barrel with very little flavor. If you do some research you will see if you coat the upper half of the barrel with wax it actually prevent o2 from entering the beer. There is very little oak flavor at 11 months in. The beer in the barrel is a nice gold color where as...

Update : tasted the barrel and wowza crazy sour , I've been topping off the barrel about once every few weeks. There is a nice Pellicle on top . The carboy I added tart cherries to about 3 months ago and I ended up moving it to a warmer room. Now it's finally reforming a Pellicle over the top...

A question on your barrels, were you able to source those locally? I found a source for whiskey barrels up there in maine and may head up in a month or 2 just for storage until I can use them.

What club is this. I'm over in Scotland

I didn't wax the heads as I figured most o2 would come through the upper staves where the beer has minimal contact with that area.

Takin a few minutes ago from the barrel. I can't wait to sample this one. The cherry lambic in the Carboy ended up having to be moved into the living room for the warmer air as it was too cold in there. I tossed some roselare on it for the added bacteria so hopefully it will show results

Just got it!

So they were done sooner than should've been, the wood pellets caught fire and over cooked the meat. But they tast awesome and are spicy HOT!

Have the links in the smoker right now will post pics when done
