So, I am currently staying one week with my bothers family (while she gets a round of chemo), then back at my family the next week. This is the roller coaster for the next 6+ months, and its subject to change as her condition develops. She is excited to witness the brew process and smell the hops being boiled...bless her heart.
Its been 5 years since I brewed and 1 year since I retired. I am not a noob, but i have been out of the loop. My equipment is as follows:
-two kegs, tops cut but not drilled yet
-one 8g brew pot, thick bottom, valve & temp welded in
-fridge with controller for fermenting
-coil chiller & therminator
-coolers 5g, 10g, 15g (with one falsebottom grain filter thingy)
-two burners (big & bigger) one for 8g other for 15g
-random: refractromotor, stir plate, steelhead pump
Its not the worlds best set up but im willing to upgrade as needed to get her a good beer and build some family memories in the process.
Her favorite beers are;
-contains no juice -alvarado street brewing
-electric lettuce, the holy hermit - moonraker
-pulp-fieldwork
-seasquatch-humble sea
Next week we are going to attempt Northern Brewers Fruit Bazooka as a "ice-breaker brew" ...
How do i start with recipe research and development ? dont mind spending money, but dont wanna waste it either.
To all who read this far... thank you, god bless. All answers, replies, etc are greatly appreciated by this humble brewer.
