Nice shot of your bung hole

Northern Brewer Irish Red. My first brew in ten years.

Saison to the left, citra IPA to the right,

then skeeter pee that needs to be bottled, tripple and two sours in the rear:rockin:

Backyard IPA on the left and Pumpkin Patch Ale on the right. Just before I added a blowoff tube.

5 gallon pumpkin ale (army of angry angels recipe from beertools.com) and a one gallon batch of amber ale (my first crack at AG and my first recipe)

Clockwise on the first pic from 12: dry mead, metheglin, 15month old oud bruin, black cherry mead, 2 buckets of wine made from zinfandel from my work. Second, mug shot of my brett pellicle for all to enjoy . Big carboy full of 3 year old sherry mead that's been bulk aging, and lastly a homemade clay vessel currently holding a gallon an a half of sweet elderberry mead. Off camera I have some other metheglin in a bucket that's being neglected and a big batch of cider in a bucket that's rolling but not much to look at. Enjoy the gorgeous brett!

This was my first split boil on my new Brutus 10-type system!
Blonde ale and oatmeal stout. Both were already going strong after a few hours!
I just mashed my 2-row for a solid base, then steeped the other grains in the split worts, different hops and yeasts and boom, two entirely different beers with one brew day!

Left: Hard Cider Middle: Honey Bee American Light Ale Right: Riesling wine. I love opening the door to the fermentation chamber...it smells soooo freaking good.

5 gal "Dark Secrets" (slight variation of ncbeernuts deception cream stout)
6 gal "Ballymoe Blonde" cream ale for thee good lady
5 gallons merlot

Four sours/Brett beers sitting at ambient in glass carboys for the long haul (soonest- the Sour Stout gets bottled maybe May of '15, the Lamebic from a week ago will sit until October of '17 before getting partially blended and partially bottled straight, the rest somewhere in between), and yesterday's Malt Liquor coming to life in the swamp cooler sitting at 58 (fermented warm and dirty with Wyeast 2206 Bavarian Lager)

Belgian Dubbel & 2 gallons of blackberry mead


Up to it! Down to it!

11g of a hoppy amber from a Yooper recipe about a week old with some centennial dry hop, and 11g of dry stout that went in the fermenter today

Beirmunchers cream of three crops recipe with grits instead of flaked maize

You must tell us all about this fastferment. I've seen them, but that's it.

Whut you wana know? Plastic conical,needed to clean up a bunch of flash, seems to work well, pitched a clean yeast harvested from the first batch yesterday with far less hassle then previous procedures, had to build a new chamber as it wouldn't fit in the old but now I have two, win,win.
First batch will go in a keg in the next couple of days, pretty happy so far.

Next fermenter I get. These look a lot more convenient then my 6.5 gallon glass carboy. Easier to save and reuse the yeast, but I don't really care about secondary fermentation. I just throw it in my keg. I'm impatient.



Basic pale ale. Nothing special.

I haven't had a need for a blowoff hose in years, so I decided to do without on my amber rye ale. Then this happened. Do rye beers usually take off like that?

ever hear of a blow off assembly?
