What did you find under your tree?

Happy Christmas all!

I've got my first keg today (a 2 and a half gallon corny keg) and a regulator. Can't wait to try it.

New turkey fryer and a 25 kilo bag of Maris Otter. Project 20 gallons of ESB begins very soon.

A gift pack of beer glasses of varying styles. Now to brew a specific beer for each glass...

Brewers Best American Pale Ale kit....

A new steel cooking table for dutch oven cooking.

Coal...again

Beer gun and another party pig. My kegging operation just became more mobile.

Not sure yet.... but as I was brewing this morning along with making cinnamon rolls for the family .. I was asked if I used all my brew water???? Saying yes.. I got a look of concern and my boy jumped in his truck to go to the store... .......hummm, wonder whats in that box over >>>>> there.. looks just big enough for a 5 gal partial mash recipe

A new Thermapen....

A refractometer and some vials/storage rack for freezing yeast.

big ass scoop for grain

Beer related I unwrapped a Hop Rocket and Beergun. It's been a great Christmas morning.

It's early in California but I was delivered two books via the Kindle store on Hops and Yeast. Very excited to read them and understand things more. Merry Christmas to all.

Lets see three cases of bottles, 2 brewers best American cream ales, and one brewers best kolsch. So yea a good Christmas.

Yep! Got a scale with resolution down to 0.1 g and a Northern Brewer gift cert, which works out really well because I also received an AHA 1-year membership, and that gets me a discount at Northern Brewer, so I'm going to put those together and get a false bottom.

My birthday is a couple days before Christmas, and I was given a pH meter which I put to good use on last weekend's brewday (hit a perfect 5.3 mash pH!)

Merry Christmas HBT'ers!

Tangentially related to brewing: was given an outdoor smoker from my in-laws. Plan on smoking some grains with different types of wood.

Got two brewing books, and a book I'm returning for a wine tasting book!

Yeah, and another year of homebrewing license from my GF!

My girlfriend got me this 100 gallon behemoth. I'm not sure that I can even take it back to my apartment 70 miles away yet, let alone make enough beer to make using it feasible. Even if I did 15 gallons at once in it, it would barely be full enough to steep a grain bag in. But I'm very grateful none-the-less

Well darn,, there was not a recipe worth of grain, hops and DME in that box.... there was TWO 5 gal worth...

And a 5gal short keg converted to ball lock, and new pressure release lid (I needed a pin lock keg for it's lower height , but all my lines and other kegs are ball lock, hence the conversion)

Hmmm, did a 5gal IPA this morning while making cinnamon rolls.. and have a few hours before dinner ..... I think this calls for another batch today...... the Porter I think.

I found a two tier Carboy stand made of repurposed pallet wood. I think she's telling me to get my stuff in order. Gotta love a girl that knows her way around a wood shop!

My sister got me a dozen 1 liters with custom labels. She took our highly inappropriate name of "Just The Tip Brewery" (wedding crashers, anyone?) and incorporated an iceberg so now I can actually give them as gifts.

i got a food saver 2244, stirstarter stir plate and a gift card to brew and grow.
