Hey Everybody,
Just giddy about my brew day today and wanted to share, because I tried to get my wife psyched up about it and I got a blank stare.
Anyway, when I started brewing on my own (I've been brewing with a friend on his rig for years) I was clocking 8 hour brew days. And not reaping the benefits of great beer. A little over a year, a ton of process and equipment improvements, and about 20 batches later, I just completed a brew day on a Pale ale with a 75 minute boil and a 50 minute hop stand in 5 hours from heating the strike water to pitching the yeast and hit all my numbers exactly. It just feels good. I feel like I've gotten pretty good at this.
Anyway, just wanted to share the joy and you anonymous people are the only ones that could appreciate it.
