What are you drinking now?

Sweet **** man. Love that beer. What size of a kettle is that?

Drinking water hoping I'm not going to get what the wife has.

 

It's a ten gallon. Does the job for now but it's days as a bk are numbered.

 

Ship it this way, I could upgrade my HLT.

 

I was going to buy a false bottom for it actually. Think a ten gallon mt will be big enough to do 12 gallon batches?

 

By wiping them on fins meat

 

I'm with you I love food and I dine out frequently but I would be telling a lie if I said I was a little Apprehensive about it.

 

With an assumption of 25lbs of grain, 1.25qt/lb strike ratio, you would have .2 gallons of head space.

 

If they're lower OG, maybe. I did a couple 1.055 10-gallon batches okay. It was pushing the limits for sure. I can safely get 22 pounds of grain in my 10 gallon MT with .25 gallons of dead space, medium body. Anything more than that, no way. That would make a good BK though.

 

I refuse to eat out at a restaurant any more unless it is somewhere really, very special. Aside from the horrible ingredients most places use to make things taste good and sodium overload, I worked in a kitchen that won awards for cleanliness. I'm pretty sure people get sick just by looking at an Applebees.

 

I can't wait to use my 10 gal. Igloo MT I got for xmas. Rather intimidated since it will be a whole new process for me, but oh so ready to have something with a real grain bill.

- more coffee, doin work, watching the snow

 

Hmmm. It might be a hlt in its next life. That means I can put an element in it after today's brew. Sweet!

I can't decide what the next beer should be. Let the heavy day drinking begin!

 

The sickest I've ever been in my life was after eating a steak dinner at Outback I was begging for someone to kill me. I'm sure it was some guy's [email protected] infested hands on my steak.

 

My best friend works at an Outback. He sends me pictures of things I rather not disclose for fear of my stomach purging itself of lunch. Just... if you need a steak fix, throw one on the grill.

 

Coke with leftover lasagna and more birthday cake.

 

Now you tell me! Lol lesson learned believe me

Crack!

 

My porter with lunch.

 

I live by the 'ignorance is bliss' mantra when it comes to some things.

 

Oh and I'm drinking flu leftovers

Coffee at work. I think a few coworkers tool the morning off not sure. Guess if I get an angry phone call my question will be answered

 

Dying to tear into my first dfh 120 but suppose I should let it sit till the head in the bottle settles. Hb kolsh it is.

 

Water. Going to try and limit myself to 1 pint per day. Except on brew days of course. I feel great.

 

Did you see they drank your 30+ year old can of Bud over the weekend? No pic / video yet. Try to make the DFH 120 last that long..

on coffee at work.

Wow.

Will have a beer after a shower.

If I am awake at 6pm it will be a freaking miracle.

Finishing off a dragons milk, waiting on a boil. My father just asked for a family dinner out. I told him we needed a driver.

 

More coffee...SWMBO will probably work late, but was less grumpy by the time she left for work. Thanks for the kind words about my aunt. Unfortunately, they are stopping treatment, trying to make her comfortable and trying to get her into a room on the hospice floor. I wish I had been to visit more recently.

 

Sorry to hear that, man.

 

I'm sorry. My sincere condolences.

 

Sorry to hear that matt

 

Water, finally boiling.

 

Pumpkin Stout HB and HB Mosaic IPA. No pics. Who schedules meetings after 5? damn

 

Looks like you need a propane burner. Took that long to boil. I'll go crazy if i had to wait that long

 

It feels as if you've been brewing since this morning. Is this just one batch?

 

Yeah, stovetop takes forever but it is a lot warmer in here than it would be out there with the propane.

It recently occurred to me that I cannot much use my leaky counter flow chiller when it is zero degrees outside. Hope this pot fits in the sink for an ice bath.

 

Texans, is the Whataburger pepper ranch whatever sold in stores?
