Brewed this up today. Pictures to follow, probably tomorrow as I need some sleep. This was my Vienna & Northern Brewer SMaSH...we found that when we brewed up larger quantities (18 gal last time) it was far too malty, so I cut it with 20% 2-row this time, we'll see how that works.
Added some First Wort Hops and changed the additions around, too. Did a decoction mash, so that should put the color up to style for a pale. This is fermenting in a Sanke keg.
Got pictures of the new organized brewery, as well. I'll post a brew pr0n thread in the photo forum.
Oh yeah, and 92% efficiency today! I think that's my best yet.
