My brother had Google play a band he heard on SiriusXM on the Jimmy Buffett channel, Algorithm... Reggae and ska with some good covers too

I'm working on waking up some yeast I've had dormant for a couple years... It's slow but I'm seeing a little action that has me hopeful.

I normally keep #25 of two base malts and #1-5 of adjuncts and such. A few varieties of hops at 2-4ozs each... That's normally what I have. But a couple years ago I found out my local brew store was going out of business so I WAAAY overbought on supplies! I'm just now getting my overstock down...

I'm brewing beer today! First batch in months so I'm pretty jazzed 🤩

Coffee at the moment... Getting my ducks in a row for my first brew day this year!

Not nearly enough for my taste! My lazy brother only is motivated about four times a year. I once brewed 8 weekends in a row.

What Brothers Brewing

I've actually been a member before but after DIY Brew house closed I haven't been as active. Might be time to change that!

For a wheat that's pretty clear 😀

I just found out my local brew shop in Columbia (BetMar) doesn't sell grain by the sack, only by the pound. I'd love to know where a nearby place is that does sell by the sack if anyone knows. I am getting low on base malts and have a lot of brewing to do going forward. I'd rather not pay...

Celebrating a successful solo bottling adventure of ten gallons of California Common! I can't pay my back so I cracked a tall boy instead 😂

Got it all in the bottle! Four cases and a sixer... The case in the middle on the floor was my last before now.

Absolutely 😘 Belgian dark quads and the best recipe I know of is the Westvleteren 12. My brother and I agree it's the best beer we make regardless of style or recipe. That reminds me that after my saison I'll need to pick up some pilsner malt

Got everything ready to bottle ten(!) gallons of California Common today. It's about time as my house stock is down to 1.5 cases... I like to have 6 or more generally

Wood chips for the Weber kettle and a couple of Tshirts

Keeping track of the early fermentation process at about 48 hours it's off the chain! Active doesn't begin to describe it lol there was good krausen at 24 hours but the liquid is churning vigorously.

The viability of yeast at any age is always amazing to me. I have had jars of saved yeast in my fridge for two years and they start up well with a bit of time and patience. Saturday I started some San Francisco Lager yeast (wlp810) that was nearly three years since it was last used. It was...

Yep! Using wlp810 (San Francisco Lager) yeast in a California Common, one of my favorite styles but first time brewing it in three years 🤔
