A friendly place for friends who drink

[blizzard]

Whelp, no bottling for me today. Sour auto siphon had crap on the bottom of it. Ordering a new one. Ugh!

Put it in a keg and send to me. I'll take care of it.

Afraid it will get infected if you use it?

Exactly

Just lost a great account through no fault of my own. Just goes to show, nothing good can come from working on Saturday. Today sucks!

Why were you using it to siphon crap in the first place?

Septic tank ain't gonna empty itself.

I'm not just gonna touch it. I'm no animal!

It's interesting to see the artwork difference I see in this thread vs this region. We don't have anywhere near the level of vibrant new age cartoony stuff I've been seeing the past week in here. I dig those cans those.

 

[iijakii]

Alright took puppers on an hour long walk, now time to get drunk and brew.

 

[Zekk]

Some "premium" coffee. Waiting while my car gets oil changed and tires rotated. Next up, hair cut. Wife scheduled pictures of my son and I tomorrow.. During football. WTF

Living the dream. Jealous.

This actually has a coarse coating of some type or 'tactical grip' on the can... One of the coolest cans out there imo.

Its not even 10AM and you're already done?!

Yep. Mornings brews are the norm. Up at 6.30 to a nice dark quiet house. Very relaxing.

I have that stove. How much liquid can you boil on it?

Getting ready for coffee and pancakes.

When I do 90 minute boils I start with 7.5 gallons. Not a problem. It's ~18,000BTU

Thats an early brew. Im waiting a bit so I can get krunk.

Why wait. Got something else to be drinking?

You use glass carboys right?

Do yourself a favor and get one of these. My auto-syphon never sees the light of day anymore. This is a much better product.

Stays where you want it, stainless steel, wide bore.

Took the day off to take care of some business this morning, so what to do this afternoon?
Jumped on the mild bandwagon, can't hurt to have a second batch as the one I just kegged will die a quick death

Coffee brown while I wait on the mash,

I agree, very cool can and the grippy schit is awesome.

I do use glass most of the time. My only stipulation to that is the orange cap. I purchased one once and didnt even use it after seeing that it didnt fit very snug. I guess if its just for transferring it could work out. Already ordered the siphon though...

Drinking this dank brew. Thanks again bigperm, love this beer.

How do you like those lids? I just ordered a six pack of those a few weeks ago to temporarily store yeast but havent used them yet.

 

[iijakii]

Alright, pregaming with some lunch and beer while strike is heating up. Can't brew, stogie or drink on an empty stomach.

Love electric. Sitting here eating and drinking and whenever I go out I'll have perfect strike. Tell you hwut.

 

[iijakii]

It's a shame my dog is scared of the garage for now, I could use a brewpartner.

Work great and no worry about rust, I bought a bunch of them.

No worries. Just thought it might be an idea.

I like using carboy caps.

What are they called. I've run out of mason jars and am looking to get more. Might get those instead.

 

[iijakii]

I used those orange caps back when I had BB. Loved transfering that way. I think mine was a bit loose as well, nothing holding it wouldn't cure.

 

[iijakii]

Damn too big of a lunch. Hope I can still pack away some beers. I think the mystical Mild is also a digestive aid, so I should be OK.

If you want to get a buzz on with a full stomach, I can assure you, a mild is not the way to go.

Man I lucked out on my timing. Was 55F and sunny. Instant I start brewing it's pouring and a lot colder. Almost feel like I'm a Textard again.
