I was lucky, out of the 4 bottles of white labs wlp300 ONE vial had a november date on it :ban:

and now i have a proper thermometer to brew with.. hard to be accurate with a candy thermometer :)

For a steep'n specialty grain this recipie is awesome! I'm excited to see what entire fermentation in a glass carboy is going to do it. last time i used a bucket and a british ale yeast :).
 
I'm doing my third PM on Sunday - it'll be a pale ale of sorts. I've got a red/amber ale to rack to secondary and was considering pitching onto the cake from it for this weekend's batch. I picked up some Safale US05 with my ingredients in case I decide against it but I'm leaning towards pitching right onto the cake. I've only done it once before - pitched a Dunkel onto a Hefe cake. It worked out great but I've read in several places that you should pitch darker than the cake. What the hell - onto the cake it goes!!!!!
