I'll play Russian river (Pliny & blind pig) and a bottle of silver oak on my way out of Santa rosa, ca. Now in the airplane hold.... Killer

You should like the results of the NB Furious recipe as they go it directly From Surly. I even have the recipe for the "dry hop blend". After I kegged it, had some friends over and got several compliments including one that said it tasted the same as the can he had several hours earlier! Killer

I'm out in DC , actually NoVA this week, I picked up aprihop as well as some 60&90 to bring back to the land of Surly.... Went to the DFH ale house in chantilly this week as well.

So,,, do you leave the Irish moss in primary or do you strain it out as you pour the brew kettle into primary? Killer

Fair enough ;) Killer

Thanks all for the responses. I chose to toss the attempt out and do it again per recipe, second batch is in primary now after hitting my #'s. I know i could have probably salvaged it, but I'm weird like that. Good news is I have 11oz of lactose now for another recipe..... Thx again, Killer

Oops, I goofed, rather than 5 oz in the southern tier creme brûlée milk stout, I put in 16oz....... That's what I get for multi-tasking.... Killer

+1 on NB Surly Furious. Friend happened to have a Furious earlier in the day and commented that it was an exact match! We have a winner. I will say this though,,,,it was my most expensive beer ever and while I will do this one again, i need to probably do this all grain and re-use the yeast...

What recipe do you use? We love the leine's and I would have to make at least a 5gal batch a month for the summer. The brings up a good question, do you actually plan ahead or do you find yourself saying "crap, I HAVE to brew this or we won't have any!?". I'm new so I fall into the latter. Killer

Have some catching up to do....... Left to right, Irish red Rich German bock Cream ale Stout Firestone DNA Euro pilsner Maibock I won't get through them all this weekend but I hope to get three done. Be well Killer

To end a really crappy week, I'm in the airport security line , you know the one, first class where I'm the only one And at Least 150 others in other lines and I proceed To drop my empty 21st amendment growler..... I'm surprised guns weren't drawn because it sounded like a grenade and shrapnel...

+ infinity Now I have to take work off to brew........ No biggie, but cramps the production schedule.. Killer

Wc12, have you had the Brooklyn as its aged? If so how has it aged? I'm off to NYC in two weeks and looking to see if I can tour or at least grab some varieties that are hard to find here in mn.

Current view of my beverage fridge, bottles are 12 deep (mostly), bombers are 4 deep, except for the miller up top, this fridge is MINE!! Now this is for friends, currently serving Blind Pig. And this is what I'm drinking tonight! Hopslam..... Be well, Killer

Cool, thanks, I'm bottling and kegging it tomorrow. And hopefully brewing a pilsner and a cream ale. Killer

Made some blind pig on 12/31, and due to traveling, it was in primary for 3 weeks, and secondary for two. I'm cold crashing it currently to let the proteins(?) drop, seems to be working and I want to bottle a 12 pack and keg the rest. Am I going to have to add yeast so the bottles will...

Never enough......... Killer

On sale @20% off, and on clearance for another 30% at home depot. Not sure if it's still going on but my hd had three. I'd check out your local home depot on the way home! ;) Killer

That is the protective wrap... Surly furious recipe went through it first. 5 gal is a lot for me and I'm thinking I can use smaller kegs, ie (2) 3 gallon and adapt a 5L in it. Seems like there is enough or would be enough space. ( I tend to bottle and share those with friends and usually...

Walking through home Depot I spied a great deal, a visani kegorator for $220, so I brought it home!! Heading off to Midwest supplies tomorrow to get parts to make it a three faucet tower. Let the fun begin! Killer
