What came in the mail for you today?

Side trade with @Beerwildered !

 

Porch bomb from @wstbrewing. Return package from a side trade. Thanks, Dude! I’m really looking forward to cracking these.

 

Enjoy. I know you’ve had a few of em before, but it should a fun beer tour of Connecticut.

 

In line oxygenation from blichmann came today. Just in time hopefully a brew day Saturday or Sunday then.

 

I hate sending beer to the West coast, but I sure do love getting it! Side trade action with @HopsNTails. Now, to get the return done. Thank you, Sir!

 

Enjoy! Glad they made the trip safe and sound

 

The new Inkbird ITC 308 WIFI @ 50% off thanks to HBT and Inkbird!

 

Bootleg order.

 

Yummy

 

Just received ingredients for my ‘MaCC Daddy’ APA: Rahr 2 Row, Med Crystal, Magnum for 60 min and Cascade for 10 and 1 min additions. I’ll inoculate with Imperial Cablecar.

 

MaCC like Masters in Accountancy? Asking for a friend.

 

Spike CF5. Cant wait to fill this thing up. Rye pale ale will be its first batch.

 

Nine hop rhizomes arrived in the mail today and will be planted tomorrow. Replacing nine that were accidently killed by a neighbor spraying RoundUp last year when the wind was blowing lightly.

 

Kind of poetic that my beer first see’s the light of day coming out of a keg and will now end its short lived journey in a keg.

 

Making a urinal?
Want to do it but no place allowed in this house to do it.

 

MaCC as in Magnum, Cascade, Cascade.

 

This didn’t come in the mail but a friend of ours brought this back for me!

 

Yes! I just got mine about a month ago and love it!. 3 batches so far. I had actually been “retired” from homebrewing for 20 years and just came back. First thing I wanted was a Spike conical! There is some much cool stuff now.

 

Ive had that Ensorcelled. That's really good.

 

It seems like whenever I think I’m happy with my brewing system, I find something to tinker on or change. I just installed a dial thermometer at the output of my mash to compare mash temps. Good to know that I have a one degree difference between what’s going in and then returning to the kettle for recirculation. So far I’ve tested with water and we’ll see if there is a difference with the thermal mass of the mash come next brewday!





Oh and I just picked up this beauty for $80 off eBay!



I took everything apart in that photo and thoroughly cleaned it. I’m thinking of grabbing some tri-over clamps, elbow and valve to make a yeast dump like SS has in their conical’s.

 

Jaybird yeast brink. Can now add hops, fruit, or anything else with almost 0 o2 ingress

 

Cook dinner and have a homebrew with it.

 

Love Penzey's spices!

 

New circulation fan motor for the old kegerator. I didnt even know that i could fix refridgerators.

 

I got the first of my three items from Amazon today...4 ounces of beer line cleaner.

 

Some Avery tags so I can tell what's in my kegs!

 

And the other two came today...a dry hopper and a bunch of o-rings for all my kegs.

 

Two fahrenheit capable ITC-1000f temp controllers replace two STC-1000 Celsius only controllers. NO MORE TEMP CONVERSIONS, and no more risky potential of a red blooded American learning the metric system!

 

Whatcha doin with the old ones?

 

Starter action starting...rest tomorrow

 

As redneck as the previous post sounded, the reality is I’m replacing them as standard preventative maintenance and I’ll just keep the old ones for a mid weekend emergency. They are both over 5 years old and run continuously, a large commercial refrigerator for one and fans and heater to control Ferm chamber for the other (in a non conditioned garage). They may have run another 5 years with no problem, but for $15 each,it wasn’t worth waiting till problems occurred.

BTW - +1 on the hobbit quote!

 

Have you began the install?! That’s beyond awesome, PLEASE post pics!!

 

Detent valve for my log splitter ... just sayin'

 

Don't feel bad. If I were to name my 3 vessels the first would be she, second hate , 3rd me. Kind of like that jankey foo

 

Just got my CF10 and it was in the box for about long enough for the FedEx guy to get off my front porch before I was tearing it open and putting pieces together.

They should have an “early morning” delivery option, waiting until 3:30 pm for it to arrive was killer.

 

Nice Beer Box from @GaBrewZoo

 

Hopefully installing it this weekend, I had to order the flush valve. I’ll be sure to post pics.

 

I got an @GaBrewZoo box too!
