    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I had a batch that I started on 7/25/2012 using EC1118. This was a set it and forget it batch - it was in primary the entire time and never got racked to secondary. I decided this past Saturday (3/2) that it was time to package. Kegged it and dropped it in my keezer. It finished at 1.001 and...

    New 10 gallon pots $40...

    I ordered one last week for $36 and some change, plus free shipping. It arrived Tuesday and seems to be a very sturdy pot. I'll be doing the pre-brew water boil either tonight or tomorrow night, and the maiden brew will be this weekend. The planned break-in brew is a citra pale ale. Can't wait!

    What came in the mail for you today?

    Replacement keg from Midwest. Guess that means I can keg my 6 month old apfelwein.

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I pitched EC1118 into a batch on 7/28. It's going into a keg this weekend. I haven't read through the whole thread to verify, but I'm assuming I can just set it to the same pressure I use to serve my ales (10-12) and let it sit until carbed. Hard to believe I let it sit this long, but it...

    buying online

    One of the Northern Brewer stores is local to me, so most of what I need I just pick up when I'm there. However, I have ordered from Austin, Midwest, Adventures in Homebrewing, and Farmhouse at various times and for a wide range of products. In fact, I did a lot of online shopping on Black...

    CO2 SALE + FREE SHIPPING - Kegconnection.com

    If the free shipping is still available, I'd love to get the code for that. My gift to myself this year is a 4 keg kit with a couple of co2 tanks.

    What I did for beer today

    Took advantage of Midwest's keg sale and ordered 4 ball lock kegs. They'll go nicely with the chest freezer that's being delivered in a few weeks.

    Just boiled a second set of jars for yeast washing. I think I'm covered for the weekend...

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I have a batch that hit 4 months in the fermenter the other day - it's looking very clear. I rushed my first batch, and it turned out good enough that I have another batch that's at about 3 months as well. I used Montrachet for batch #1, and EC1118 for the two that are fermenting now. I'm...

    What percentage of your beer is homebrew?

    I just started brewing in June, and my first batch was "drinkable" by the end of July. That first batch is down to the last 6-pack, I've polished off a batch of BierMuncher's Centennial Blonde and have the second batch of that bottle conditioned already, and I have 3 others that are conditioned...

    What I did for beer today

    If last night counts, boiled some pint jars and a quart jar for some yeast washing this weekend after I do some bottling. Also went by UPS to pick up my Zythos Summit IPA kit - smelled great when I unpacked the box to check if everything was there :). Used the included pint glass to enjoy a...

    I've never brewed a "kit", but dang Northern Brewer

    I've brewed their Bavarian hefe, Shining Star pale ale, and milk chocolate stout kits and really enjoyed every one of them. I'm bottling a batch of their Phat Tyre this weekend, and have a batch of Speckled Heifer (first pm kit I've done) in primary. I have to admit, I'm kind of spoiled by...

    What came in the mail for you today?

    Hops arrived from Farmhouse yesterday - 1 pound of citra and 1/2 pound each of cascade, centennial, and simcoe. Also had a UPS notice on the door for a Zythos IPA kit from Adventures in Homebrewing which I'll pick up on my way home tonight. Hoping my foodsaver will be delivered either today or...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    I'll be bottling my NB Phat Tyre and my 2.5 gallon Bass clone, and I intend to wash the yeast from both. I also have an apfelwein that hit 4 months yesterday - that may find its way into bottles (considering a batch of Skeeter Pee in that carboy if I end up bottling that). I also have a 1...

    HomeDepot 7 cu ft Chest Freezer $158

    I ordered mine last night for $153. They're delivering a week from Friday - that gives me time to order an STC-1000 and wire it up. Also gives me an excuse to take a Friday off and make it a brew day :D
