What came in the mail for you today?

Stir plate from stir starters. Now I have to order my temp control panels for my fermentation chamber and keezer I'm building.

2x 120V 3/8" plastic valves to replace the two ball valves on my diy counter pressure bottle filler. I am going to rig them to some momentary switches that will be foot operated.

Go big or go home!

50# 2 row
50# pale ale malt
Steele's IPA book

Hasn't arrived yet, but it's "Out for delivery," which usually means it'll show up in the middle of dinner. It's 5 pounds of vienna malt, some munich, caramunich, and crystal, plus a couple vials of yeast and miscellaneous other bits. Now I have to decide whether I can get it together to make up a starter and brew on Sunday, or wait at least another two weeks if not. Decisions, decisions.... leaning toward getting it done this weekend because the grains are already crushed!

9 1/2 pounds of Golden Light Malt Extract
1lb Caramel 40L
5oz Centennial hop pellets
1 package of US-05
1 Wyeast #1056 smack-pack


Going to be brewing a Two Hearted Ale clone this weekend (and bottling my first homebrew the day before!), but splitting the 5 gallon batch into two fermenters and pitching one with US-05 and the other with #1056. I read reviews on both and couldn't decide which I wanted, so I got both and decided to take the mad scientist route to determine which yeast I like better.

Edit: As well as a free copy of Palmer's "How to Brew" I snagged for joining and inputting a code. Huzzah!

Tri clover element adapter
Tri clover RIMS tube
Ass load of silicone gaskets
8 inch and a half clamps

10 lbs of New Zealand white clover seed. Has nothing to do with brewing, although I might put some it around the hop plants as ground cover.

Just 3 Oz of Stavin medium toast oak cubes

Supplies for two batches (my first IPA and coffee porter) from Midwest and 6oz of hops, including Southern Cross, Falconers Flight 7 Cs, East Kent Goldings (UK), and Cascade from Rebel Brewer. Nilo sent me two ounces of his homegrown Horizon yesterday! Happy day and my first IPA tomorrow!

Two cornies from Beverage Elements.

My Monster Mill arrived. Sweet.

Flaked grains, rice hulls, and a new thingy of pbw

I did a group-buy for maltmills out of China

A pound of Nelson Sauvin hops from Label Peelers.

FermWrap to heat my ferm chamber now that the weather is getting colder and a Shutoff w/ check valve for my CO2 regulator. Now I just need to fill my CO2 tank and I will be all set on my kegging setup.

Williams oxygen regulator just in time. It's barleywine time this weekend

Damn, you're goign to enjoy de Rodenbach!
Westmalle (tripel I assume) is so normal over here that it is available in every supermarkt Still a very nice tripel though.
St. Bernardus abt 12 is the most common one, and should be close to the same as a Westvleteren.

Briess midnight wheat. Brewed up my first black wheat. My family keeps asking why I keep making fancy beers? I said "Because to you, anything that's not clear and light is fancy!" Noobs. Cinnister Punkin Ale was way drinkable, even for wuss mouths!

I got an STC-1000 so I can upgrade my fermentation chamber to dual stage one.
