Welcome to the hobby/obsession! I started in March and after one partial mash went straight to all grain and am over 16 batches now! Actually just bottled a batch and milled the grain for tomorrow's batch. Cheers!:mug:

Submitted survey. This weekend i will be bottling and rebrewing my Good Friday IPA. I will also be bottling a brown porter and enjoying some time with my boys hiking in the Rouge Valley Urban National Park.

Agreed! It is 6.6% and leads a good whatever day it may be, but it was named as was originally brewed on the Good Friday. Regardless, it turned into a good brew.:mug:

Usually just call it what it is. I have only named 2, well actually 1 as my cousin dubbed the other. Trying to get my cousin interested in brewing, he came over for a brew day to do an IPA. While brewing he asked what we should call it and i said doesn't matter, so he wrote on some paper...

I do a 2.5gal batch every week plus throw in a 1gal experiment once or twice a month.

Fermenter 1 - Brown Porter Fermenter 2 - Amber Ale Fermenter 3 - IPA Fermenter 4 - JAOM Fermenter 5 - Mead Fermenter 6 - Empty

Good to hear OBK has quick service. They have been on my radar for a while but I have been able to make due with the gear I have so far. A new kettle is a must for any 5gal brewing for me as I currently only have an 18qt, which works well for the 2.5gal batches I have been doing. SWMBO has also...

I have not actually heard of them. I do like getting up to Toronto Brewing and talking with the guys up there. Actually just picked up 2 bags, 2 row and Maris Otter, from them last week. Not cheap but they are cheaper than Canadian Brewing Supplies in Brampton though. Where is grain prosses? Do...

SWMBO is anything but a beer fan, which is why i most certainly am brewing mead/cider for her. I brew indoors and according to her 'stink up the house' but she continues to allow this obsession and has even gone as far as tasting an amber I made and replied "that actually isn't horrible, but...

I have been reading the forum for several months and it has helped me a ton in getting into this hobby turned obsession. I was initially given permission by SWMBO to do 1gal batches, that was 3 months ago. I now have 3 1gal growlers brewing mead and cider as well as 3 3gal BB's each brewing...

I converted a 2 gal rubbermaid cooler into a mash tun for AG. I works well for most of the brews I do, mostly 2.5gal batches. I did find that I was at the max use of space for the bigger beers and also ended up converting a 5gal cooler to a MT. When using the 5gal as a MT I end up using the...
