First beer brewed for over a year

I had about 55-60 gallons under my belt and then took a hiatus from brewing.

I just brewed a steam and it turned out really good. Funny thing is, I kind of didn't have my equipment totally dialed in! I couldn't find the screen to my funnel, so I poured the wort through some sanitized cheesecloth. Worked fine.

Then, I didn't have the correct tubing for filling the bottles, so I just filled them directly from the spigot in the bucket. Again, no problem

I just decided to wing it and it worked great....

Very cool....How did it feel to brew again?

I got in way over my head about a year ago. Beer bottles everywhere, multiple carboys in the dining room....

I really don't enjoy bottling, but I'll get over it....

I love beer, especially hoppier tastes!!!

Welcome back. I have a good easy IPA posted, extremely hoppy!

You really don't have to get over not liking bottling. Get some kegs and start kegging. I have a lot of corny's and 3 taps on the fridge. It's a lot less work. and you have total control over carbonation.

I have got a friend of a friend who work for a local dist (Bud Co)

who said ya I think I can make a few corneys fall off the back of the truck

already have a 20# CO2 tank waitin
