Well, after many years away from brewing, I've been getting back into it again lately. I started out with some smaller batches, but recently stopped by a HBS and geared back up for 5 gallon batches.
Tonight I brewed my first 5 gallon batch since college (Lord...that was 13 years ago!)
It's a Blue Moon clone - extract with steeped grain (Caparils). Everything went pretty well, I had some clumping with the wheat DME, but I think I probably added it a bit too fast. I pitched a packet of T-58 and I'm hoping to see some lovely airlock activity tomorrow morning.
Ah, it's good to be back. Next up is an Irish red.
