    British IPA - Total Time til Bottle?

    I just bottled my AHS British IPA last night. It sat in primary for 11 days and the FG was 1.11, basically spot-on. It wasn't cloudy at all and tasted great. Won't open a bottle for 3 more weeks, but I can't imagine it not being a good beer.

    Too much alcohol for my yeast?

    Unless I'm mistaken, high krausen has already passed for the OP.

    I like "hoppy" IPAs. Which kit to buy from Austin Homebrew Supply?

    A few commercial examples I enjoy: snake dog (flying dog), hop juice (two brothers), dogfish 60/90 minute. Which kits from AHS would I like?

    Who is brewing on the MLK holiday?

    I think you misconstrue what I said as bitching. I'm not. My whole career has been in B to B, so I get a lot of exposure to a lot of different verticals. For the most part, it seems only public sector folks have it off. If I really wanted the day I could burn a floating holiday, but since most...

    So now that we've established that the vast minority has the day off, no, I will not be brewing that day.

    Who is brewing on the MLK holiday?

    Right, so that means pretty much only federal employees or teachers get the day off. I don't know a single person who has the day off in the working world.

    modern vs. medieval ale

    Garum doesn't sound like anything medieval. Sounds more like the Greek.

    HELP! Grommet from lid fell into fermenting beer

    What nurmey said. Your beer is fine. I'd sanitize the airlock and just place it in the hole, then look for the airlock when bottling. There's so much CO2 escaping during fermentation that it's unlikely for anything bad to get in your beer. Once you've been in the primary for 2 weeks go ahead and...
