Meet the twins--best B'day ever

Meet my twins. . .

Its my birthday on Saturday, and SWMBA (She who must be adored) got me a new conical for an early gift. . . .):rockin:
Enjoy!!

OMG that is nice! So I take it you already had one.
I'm jealous. For more than one reason.....

Biermann, every time you post I just end up hating you more.

Nice, man!

Yeah, the one on the right was already in place. My wife said to me today, "Hey, do you want to go and help me pick the kids up from school?". I said, "sure", and before you know it, we're pulling into the LHBS, and she walks in, and says to the guy, "I'm here to pick up a package, and out he walks with the conical (in a cardboard box)." BTW, it was cheaper and faster than Northern Brewer, or anywhere else online.

I was shocked.

I'm so lucky to have a LHBS and a wife like that.

I guess she got sick of me complaining when I had to revert to glass when the conical was full.

:rockin:

need I mention that I pump up to these guys now. . .I don't have to lift a danged thing. . .

I'm giving the new conical a Christening brew Friday. . . Any suggestions on styles??

Hey, thanks, and. . . no hard feelings. . .

I'm fortunate, that's for sure.

No hard feelings here. We know you've got to compensate for your... ummm... well you know... somehow.

well, we all have our compensatory mechanisms. . .

Now then. . I'm thinking of fitting a pelt mechanism to one of these puppies for a controlled temp conical. . . .

indeed!!!

She actually requested not to be known as SWMBO anymore. . .

I think she earned it.

I am so happy for you. Honestly I am. I feel like I can share your joy. If you are happy that makes me happy. Now ship your wife over to me...

I mean, really, can you imagine the shipping on my wife??

I just realized that this was my 1000th post.

They're each 14.5 gallons. I usually do 10-12 gallon batches, so they work perfectly.

Too bad it's not the other way around. Though a conical for fathers day is nice compensation.
