Just bottling and transferring this weekend.
Fat Cat ESB -> bottles
BB Steam (w/ S-23) -> Secondary.

It was a very cold two weeks here. Inside temp was pretty
low where the beers age. Gravities were not as low as I had hoped,
but samples reveal everything tastes great

It is an hour lost tonight (DST), but worth it:cross:

Gruagach 80/- is going like a madman. I'm stuck at work and meant to take this out to the brewery (where it is cooler) to finish fermenting..the house was warm today. I want this puppy clean, but ferment temps are prolly at 70° or a little above right now. ERRRRR.

I might be bottling my porter today or tomorrow. I'm running out of time, and I need to get it to a drinkable state by the end of the month. It'll be a little green, and probably not clear, but it's REALLY dark, so I'm not worried about clarity. Beer farts, here I come!

My porter/stout is sitting pretty in the carbouy. No activity yet. Yeast pitched about 14 hours ago.

I HAVE HOPE THOUGH!!!!
