Happy Thanksgiving all! Be safe out there today and enjoy a cold homebrew. :tank:

I think I'm going to use it to serve. Or possibly ferment test batches under pressure. Need to build a spunding valve first though.

Wierd, I just got one of these and had never seen one before. Got it at an estate sale with a jockey box for $10 :ban:

+5 gal Hopslam Clone 31843 + 5 = 31848

5 gal of Stark Naked Great Vanilla Porter 31457 + 5 = 31462

+5 gal Bowl-Less Brew (For an Ohio State Game) 30,302 gallons

Corona Mill hands down. I was using a pasta machine to mill and it would take about 40min with a drill to get through 10lb of grain. Used the corona for the first time this weekend and did a 10lb bill by hand in 10min.

5 gal of Limeaid Hefe 6835.5 + 5 = 6840.5gal

Got 3 brews down this weekend. BM's centennial blonde - 5gal Midwest Brewing Kolsch - 5gal Midwest Brewing Fuggle IPA - 5gal 5825.5 + 15 = 5840.5

5 gal brewberry ale 1491.5 gal

Bells two hearted clone 5g =894 g

Pretty bad :) has a really harsh flavor. It's kindof hard to explain. It's not sour that I can tell. More like really really malty.

Awesome. Thanks for the pointers. This is something in definitely going to try.

So I'm pretty sure the kolsch I have is infected. Does this look like an infection to you veterans? This was my first all grain attempt as well :(

Yeah I had only 1 oz of centennial so the rest are cascade. I'm sure it'll be close. I hear about people harvesting yeast from bottles. Not sure how that works but I'd like to do it some time.
