That's arriving for me today!

Two extract kits from Northern Brewer: Raspberry Hefe (for my wife) and a Cream Ale (for me). Looks like I'm brewing this weekend; maybe tomorrow night.

stuff for a moose drool clone and a belgian tripel......

Today I received in the mail a programmable thermometer and stainless measuring spoons. Never thought I'd be so excited about spoons. I'm still waiting on my hydrometer jar, hoping I get it before Sunday or I might have to postpone until next weekend. Wondering if I could just use the plastic tube the hydrometer came in?

Absolutely. Just be careful not to tip it over (it's a very unstable container).

You could also use your wine thief.

This response is why I like hanging around home brewers.

A pound of Citra and a pound of Chinook.

Heatsink.

Last piece of the puzzle. Almost done with the E build......

Belated Xmas gifts from the sis. A T shirt that has Ben Franklin on it and sayin that beer is proof that god loves us. A book, 1001 beers you must try before you die, and a vinator (SCORE!).

Some citra from farmhouse brewing supply.

7.75 lbs of assorted hops from Bell's General Store...

The sheets from my first competition.

Ten rennet tablets and a bottle of citric acid for cheese making. A new obsession!

Bam!


And self delivered a week ago (expansion baby!!!)

Nothing came for me in the mail today and I really need my school book. I did go and pickup a used ball lock keg though.

A ball valve assembly for my brew pot (a turkey fryer set up) and a refractometer that measures Brax and OG.

I received a stir plate from www.stirstater.com. Great customer service and good product.

Got my 20 gallon Stout kettle today...can't wait to brew!!

I'm waitin for my stc-1000

I just got my hydrometer jar in the mail yesterday. I bought it on Amazon for something like $3.99; it's a bit cheap and wobbly, and I can see it tipping over and breaking my hydrometer one day.

I shouldn't have been thinking "economy" when I made this purchase.

Another 12 gallon Stainless Kettle. Now I could do 20 gallons at a time if I choose. I'm also expecting a book on Yeast to come today.

Waiting on my weldless adjustable angle Brewmometer hopefully it will ship soon.

Not in the mail.. But I'm finally a Premium Supporter! Yay Avatar!

Wort chiller kit from coppertubingsales.com

Not in the mail, because I'm an impatient b#astard, picked up a 15 gallon Blichmann Boilermaker. $400 spent to accompany a great deal on a $5.50 drawstring mesh bag from MoreBeer, I must be nuts. Oh well, BIAB here I come....

My order from Amazon for a Brinkman upright smoker and my Jerky Cannon from Nesco/American Harvest. Definately cookin this weekend, come He;; or high water... Momma plans for me to be off the net for the entire weekend, so I am going to take advantage of the free time and get some shop, meat and office work done that I have been meaning to do. While the meats smoking I can wrk on my 3 tier and clean up the shop a bit as I go too. Got a plan, just gotta stick with it now....

Brings up a good question for a new (4 batch) AG brewer (me). If I buy grain unmilled how long will it last and storing how? I have read crushed you should use in two weeks. Would like to buy enough materials for my house IPA

Ok so not today, I was out of town for a few days and came home to this.







Makes me want to brew now just so I can try them out!

Just got my kegging system in. and a free 6 gallon glass carboy.

Vortex stir plate, new 2000mL flask, and 2 (that's right, 2) Petite Saison D'Ete AG kits. gotta justify my conical somehow...

Better bottle 5 gallon carboy, new hydrometer, bottling wand from Midwest Supply

1# each Styrian Goldings and Simcoe, plus 1oz Mosaic to experiment with
