Well, forget my OP. I was just lucky, I guess, because I feel like hell today.

Yeah, the latter. Brew #1 was .007 low, and brews #2 and #3 were .010 low. I'm going to have a Blonde that will be around 3.4 ABV (depending on attenuation). I'm calling it Blonde Joke.

I did a triple brew day yesterday. When I was sparging brew #3 and taking the OG on brew #1, I realized that my grain didn't look right. Lots of floaters and numerous uncracked hulls. Long story short, the crush was not adequate and my efficiency suffered. My Stout ended up almost ten points low...

I brewed an American Stout, a Biere de Garde, and a Blonde Ale. And I drank some of my Scottish Export.

That's the thing, I have 2 kegged right now, one is over 7% and the other is at 6%. Not super high, but not low, either. I crushed them both last night and felt great this morning.

So my hangovers should be worse, then? Yay, I must brew magic beer!

Good point. Thanks.

I asked this question on another forum and just got a bunch of snide remarks questioning my intelligence, so I decided to try a new forum. Anyway, I have noticed that no matter how much of my homebrew I drink, I don't ever get a hangover. I sleep great, and wake up feeling refreshed. This...
