What came in the mail for you today?

Bills. Yeh!

 

Totally bummed.
Ordered my starter kit on Cyber Monday. I wanted to start my first batch last weekend hoping I could possibly have it ready by New Years but it didn't ship till Thursday and I received it today. I was looking forward to brewing this weekend however, everything BUT my Stater kit had shipped. Now I gotta wait till tomorrow to see what happened and when I might get all my gear.

Patience is a virtue... right?

 

Yes. Right!

Hang in there!

 

My new refractometer. Will use it this weekend.

 

Refractometers are to brewing as yeast is to fermentation. The boss! You'll get great use out of it.

 

Definitely something to remember in this hobby. What recipe kit did you order?

 

Caribou Slobber.
Yeah, I can see where waiting for fermentation is a lesson in patience. Maybe once I get started I can have batches in different stages to ease the pain.

 

30 qt pot showed up yesterday ....just waiting on everything else to come in for my 2.5 gallon build

What's the secret?

 

Heck yes! My wife and I have always wanted a swing so I got her one for Christmas. It's more for me than her. Oh well, I bought her other gifts too.

On another note, I'm not sure what "secret" is being referred to...

 

Two boxes from a beverage company in SD. SWMBO bought it for me for xmas, so I'm not sure exactly what it is. But based on the shape of the boxes, I'm going with kegging setup. Score!

 

For the love of hops book

 

A $100 Northern Brewer gift card and I just barely missed FedEx delivering my Blichmann floor burner, so they will deliver it Monday (it's a gift too, so even when it gets here I'm not *supposed* to open it until after Christmas....)
