Sounds great. I'll start heating up my water and move to my laptop.

And grains are steeping. This is an extract barleywine. I'm looking forward to this.

It's a beautiful 91°F at the moment. I'm waiting on my water to reach 155° so I can steep.
Wish I was brewing today, but off to work I go. Have a good one.

Enjoy your day and thanks.
BTW, I think I'm done heating steeping water on my stove. I'm at around 140°. This is taking way too long. I guess I just never checked the time before. Next batch and all future batches will be done completely on my propane burner.

The sun is coming up and outside of two different cars that drove down the street I've seen no one. I think I'm going to brew at this hour more often!
what extract are you gonna be using?
I bet it smells wonderful! Steeping grains in the morning. If I didn't have such a hectic home life I'd want to brew in the mornings too. I'm jealous!
Brew ON :rockin:

What were you doing up so early?! 
I brew early on my days off, but early to me is like 10am. It usually takes me about 2 hours to get moving enough to want to start.

Ah, the mid-week brew day. Loves it!

Here in Texas I start my AG brew day at 5:30 to beat the heat. Brewing outside in 105 degree high humidity heat is NOT fun!

I'm on vacation this week, but most shifts I pull at work I get off at 3am. I usually don't go to sleep until around 6am.

Best to brew early here this time of year to avoid Mother Nature and her huge haboobs!

I wish I could brew early, but I work 130-10am. Then I get home and have lack of motivation.

Thankfully her second haboob didn't really smother me. Her first one did though!
BTW, OG ended up being 1.112. My biggest beer yet!

4.5oz Galena (60 min)
2oz. Centennial (15 min)
2oz. Centennial (dry hop)
Beersmith is reading 158.5 IBUs, but the recipe I got from the kit is reading 89.5 IBUs. I think I still have something to figure out in Beersmith.

OK, I REALLY need to go to bed. Catch you guys in the evening.

Alma School and Warner. We should grab a beer sometime!

Try it. Night brewing is even more relaxing than brewing in general.

I'm southwest of the intersection off of Stottler.
Back from work, sounds like the brew day went well, and making me thirsty.

Oh it was awesome, thanks. Still waiting on fermentation though.

I've done it midday and suffered. I've come close to literally putting sweat in my brews.
