I also got an email stating it was being sent!

I'm going on a cruise in January in the west Caribbean so I'm curious as well hahaha

awesome...

Welcome! say goodbye to your disposable income :D

Awesome, thanks for the heads up! :mug:

I used a 30qt aluminum stock pot for a while, which worked but i needed to have fermcaps on hand at all times. I upgraded to a heavy duty aluminum pot from Sams Club that cost about 65 bucks. Go with a 10 gal pot for sure.

I likey free stuff!

I just purchased a refractometer a few months ago after 3 years of AG brewing. I love it. I use my hydrometer as well for FG, and sometimes for the OG if I think the refractometer is being funny, but I like being able to pull a little wort off while it's cooling to see where it's at. I know...

I did this recipe AG with all Citra and it was spot on. I just did a beer similar to this with all Mosaic, I"m excited to see how it turns out

I like Brewtoad, although the previous version Beer Calculus was better IMO. It's free and pretty intuitive.

I agree, 04 is fantastic. I didn't do a starter, as it's a dry yeast. Fermented at about 64.

I think it was due to the ridiculous amount of hops used in the beer. I didn't filter out anything post boil or when I kegged, so all that hop gunk was still floating around. once that all settled to the bottom, I could pull it off with a few pints and then it's good to go. that's my theory at...

I spoke to soon. I pulled the first two pints or so off the keg, which had a funky flavor, but the rest is fantastic already.

It's amazing how hurried people are. I'm also amazed at how situational awareness people have. I was in a car accident back in November because a lady simply didn't see my driving down the road and she pulled out in front of me. I had to have foot surgery, I had a bad concussion, busted ribs...

Kegged this last night (day 18). It had a fantastic smell, but I poured a little bit off the tap just to taste it and it had an acrid/sulfur taste. Very strange, I've never had that before. I'm assuming because it's still really young it's giving off this flavor.

I compost mine

I'm kegging my batch of this tonight, can't wait to see how it's doing!

I'm a former smoker

I'm with everyone else. not using sanitizer probably won't be a problem, but pitching the yeast that hot will be. I learned that lesson the hard way hahaha. Try to get it down to 70 or lower if you can. How are you controlling your ferm temps?
