Real Moose Drool with a short pour of my HB version. After a couple of weeks in the keg it’s really hard to tell them apart.
Followed you poking about HBT. Sorry about your day but a good choice to end it!Just a couple after a brutal Monday.View attachment 819043View attachment 819044
I agree. I got a bench capper and took care of that problem. Also, I find it much easier to use.These bottles suck for capping. Bevel is too short.
Funny..haha? ...story. The 1st Pliny clone I ever made was being bottled by a much more naive home brewer. I was using what ever bottles available. Got one but I could feel the capping not "snapping" so I pressed harder. It broke. Surprised me of course. My wife was right there and her eyes got huge. My thumb was gushing blood as both the capper AND bottle broke leading to 14 stitches. Needless to say that was my learning experience using properly beveled bottles but also my interest in kegging. In the end, that was the best beer I made at the time...so all was well!I agree. I got a bench capper and took care of that problem. Also, I find it much easier to use.
Glad you enjoy using it. I remember talking with you about brewing a Helles. Did you make your own recipe or use a published one?Dad passed on May the 4th last year so watching Rogue One as a prequel. Thanks for the Nebraska glass @camonick! Means more than you know!

It was a pretty basic recipe I found online but added corn since IDK what brings to the party, sweetness I guess. I think the important part was the water profile. Very low in chemicals.Glad you enjoy using it. I remember talking with you about brewing a Helles. Did you make your own recipe or use a published one?
