My company went all in on lean about 15-20 years ago. I had just started working on the presses and they had the day shift operator label everything. Literally everything. And thats how I found out he couldn't spell. "Siscors" and "Lopue" made my eye twitch... My favorite label was for the...

First pizza of the new year. Tried a new crust, worked out pretty good but operator error and it could have been better. Leftover ham, figs, and olives with a harissa sauce.

I’m in, love your products

FWIW, ive been brewing for about 5 years and almost exclusively use dry yeast. Ive never rehydrated and I have always had fermentation. Never a stalled ferment or a failure to start. Some lag times are quick, and start up by the next morning (I generally are pitching around 4-7pm because I...

Creamy kale soup w sausage, carrot, sweet potato, and leeks.

Brewed a pale ale today. a bit of warrior at the start and finished with huell melon. Never brewed with that hop before but im trying to liquidate inventory and it smelled amazing, so in it went. Not dry hopping this guy cuz im unsure when I will be able to keg it, and Id like to time it with...

Ive really slacked on the brewing as my work has picked up, but I managed to keg the cream ale I brewed about a month ago. tastes wonderful. Glad I waited the extra week for the stubborn K97 Krausen to fall. Aiming to brew again on Friday but undecided if I should start a new line of pale...

Being the only beer drinker in the house, I generally have to ask myself "How would I feel about this beer if I had spend money on it instead of brewed at home?" Most times, Im okay with the thought of buying it. A few times, Ive been furious if I would have paid for it. A few other times, I...

That’s out???

Been a couple months for me here, but gotta post the first snowstorm. As usual, great beer to go into winter with.

We get tons of em here. Butternut is my favorite and acorn a close second. I just never thought of making soup with them. My wife really enjoyed it and had done good feedback for next time. They’re dirt cheap in this area for another couple weeks so I plan on grabbing more than a few. I like to...

I love fall squashes but never made a soup from them before tonight. Usually just roast and use as a side. This was excellent though. I blame @corkybstewart for the inspirations with his squash and pumpkin soups!

Soup night! Butternut squash. First time making it, so I have some changes for next time. Roasted half and cubed half. I’ll roast the whole thing next time and just bump up the other veggies/beans.

Cloud’s bee closed awhile. Or at least The Hop Shop has been. Used to stop there while taking my dad to the VA. Saw Kato mentioned a few times. If you’re going in for dry yeast, a few popular white labs yeasts, or basemalt, they’ll have you covered. 55# bags were more than reasonable to me...
