If you drink that beer alone, you'll regret it. Too good not to share.

I feel like this is my next step in brewing. Have not done any water chemistry at all other than trying the 5.2 ph stabilizer which i have heard conflicting things about so i stopped using it after 2-3 batches. I havent really noticed a difference at all. NY water seems like its pretty good for brewing as my beers have come out pretty good so far. Wonder what kind of improvements and effects i could put on my beers if i got this technique down.

Drinking water after a good chest workout.
 
Now onto "Dolph". My Russian Imperial Stout. Damn this thing came out good. Can't wait to taste it after another 6 months or so of aging.

Me too. Its the next step. My water isnt bad but not great. Lots of chlorine and carbonate in it. Need to get a RO system here so i can use that and add the salts myself

I always keep some rice hulls on hand just for peace of mind.
 
Second pour is always better. Got a little more hop-flavor second round-farily sweet too for a bipa. Still, Ive had lots better black ipa-bombers @ almost half the price of this- its pretty solid really though. Think I even liked my Black ipa more, miss the estate ale this year. Ill take a Southern Hemisphere though anytime-love the NZ hops, good price on it too.

Took the wife out to dinner tonight.
Had a drink called a Montana Mule. Whiskey is the only important ingredient in it. :D

Oh, and had a nice rare flat iron steak with a stuffed portobello on top. So good!

My water here is terrible so I used bottled spring water for a few batches and quickly switched to r/o with salts for cost savings. I use Bru'n water for my adjustments which can be a little complex at first, but once you get used to it the results are fantastic.
Drinking Avery White Rascal. Delicious
