Agreed! This mornings action. Wish I got one years ago.

I got some Swanson L. Plantarum capsule for a kettle sour that I am doing on MLK day.

I ordered a variety of custom bottle caps with the new logo I designed. I like to give samples of my beer to friends and coworkers and thought these would be a neat way to personalize my bottles.

I've been reading it a few pages (binge) every day since it came. Its been raining non-stop , waiting on a Hef to ferment out and Im off work a little while so I have plenty of time to read up .I'm already past the water chapter . I'm finding a lot more in depth information than "Joy of Home Brewing- Papazian." Had I read this first, Id probably feel like it was above my head. Now that Ive got some brewing experience and know most procedures and terms, its a great book to step up on formulas and getting to know more than just the basics. I would definitely recommend this to add to every brewers library, no matter what their current brewing skill level. Never stop learning.

Cap Gun bottle opener and cap shooter.

I bought the 5 regulator taprite about a few months ago. You're gonna love it. I currently have them set at 20, 11.5, 14, 17. Can't do that with a manifold.

Had a giftcard from xmas so i used it and bought a new ph meter (since mine is at the end of its life, i think) , some spray bottles for sanitizer, and rubber gloves. Never had an infection but i had $6 left over and figured I'd give the gloves a try for brew days.

I've got the same pH meter and it works good. I calibrate before every brew, and it lines up very well with bru'n water predictions, save for a couple anomalies.

I also have the same meter. It works great. I also use it for my hydroponic cannabis setup daily. cheers

That's good to know! Definitely better than my cheap throw away one now! Looking forward to using it.

It didn’t come in the mail. It came in @pshankstar vehicle. That’s better than the mail!

Since @TBC showed his, I’ll show mine! [emoji6][emoji6]
I would say I hope you enjoy them but I already know the answer! Haha Especially since I know I’ll enjoy mine!
Thanks again for meeting up to trade beers, grab a bite to eat (sucks eating alone all week) and of course talking beer!
@imasickboy I’ll try to figure out a way to swing by and do the same with you one of these trips.
Time for bed!

Nice trade, Fellas

I forgot to mention @TBC gave me a few of his home brews too! I’ll post pics when I drink them in the near future.
Thanks @jimyson! Maybe some day I’ll make it out your way & we can do the same thing. We have kicked around the idea of doing a weekend trip to the Columbus zoo.

Do it! I have the membership over there so anytime, we’ll meet you with the kiddos.

I'm in Monterey, and all you folks are talking about Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Y'all drunk?

I'm in SoCal but we've been up to your area for the aquarium... if someone close to Russian River offered to trade while i'm up there I would bring a good stock from down here on the ride. Just sayin, a good beer exchange is nbd especially when it's along an already planned route.

Good for you guys for trading without mail couriers.

Just received Home Coffee Roasting, by Kenneth Davids. Found a used copy for a few bucks on Amazon. Wife saw the book, shook her head and said, "that's all you need, ANOTHER hobby..."
