You wanna move a little closer?

 

[imasickboy]

Not a chance.

 

[TwistedGray]

Not a chance.

You don't like liberal California?

 

[imasickboy]

Nope. Not my scene. I'm too old for all that stuff.

 

[TwistedGray]

Ha, touche! Package shipped : )

 

[JDXX1971]

In that I case I still get what I wanted I'll take @JDXX1971

I will get it all ready to go this weekend. I have to bottle up a couple of them still. Oh yeah and I forgot, I have a bottle of BOMM for ya too!

 

[imasickboy]

@fourfarthing do you like hot sauce? I may or may not have something special.

 

[JDXX1971]

MMM, hot sauce!! I have three gallons or so of different peppers fermenting right now. Hot sauce will be ready in the spring! We should start a hot sauce trade!

So I guess I am supposed to run the next trade huh? I am thinking after the first of the year unless someone else wants to do it in the meantime. As for notification, dont worry I will make plenty of noise!!

 

[imasickboy]

Next one's on you. Contact @Thorrak for access to his trade site. It'll make life easier for you.

As far as hot sauce goes, I have a few special peppers:

I'm out of the country through mid January, so I'm not going to participate

No rush, so long as it arrives before the 21st we're all good.

You have my addy?

Wow!!! Them look HOT!!

 

[JDXX1971]

I bet that you will be back in time.

 

[imasickboy]

Wow!!! Them look HOT!!

Mmhmm. But they're not. Well, the peach ones are habs, and they are hot, obviously, but the others are not. They taste like habs, with that same fruity thing going on, but without the heat. I've been searching for a while for something like that, and found them last year. I grew one plant last year, and two this year. They produce like crazy, and I freaking love them. They're perfect for blending with hotter ones to find that perfect amount of heat, but still get the crazy amount of flavor.

 

[fourfarthing]

@fourfarthing do you like hot sauce? I may or may not have something special.

Oh hell yes please.

Did you like the FOTD box I sent you? BC if you didn't like it, I am afraid of the hot sauce I would get.

 

[imasickboy]

Oh hell yes please.

Did you like the FOTD box I sent you? BC if you didn't like it, I am afraid of the hot sauce I would get.

The FotD box is completely intact. They're all in the fridge for a bottle share we have going on tomorrow. When I post pics of the results, I'll tag you on the post so you can see the damage.

 

[TwistedGray]

@imasickboy should have received his package, and I just got mine today. I'll post up tomorrow

Been fighting this stupid chest cold thing

 

[TwistedGray]

I cannot wait to dig into these cider varieties @JDXX1971

Hopefully my cold finally goes away before the weekend.

Remember that the one labeled Syser needs extra steps ok. Hope you get feeling better soon.

Do tell

 

[JDXX1971]

Uh, well you gotta freeze it first and then drain it in a glass and enjoy. I was going to do it for you but I got lazy.

Strain or drain?

 

[JDXX1971]

Just as long as the white stuff stays out of your glass.

Duly noted. Any idea what the rest of these are, lol.
P = Porter?
Choc Porter = obvious
BOMM
FC
ESB 1098
ESB 505
CB
Sycr = Syser?

Fruitcake is obvious enough, too. Cute label!!

 

[JDXX1971]

p= yep
BOMM= Brays one month mead
fc= fruitcake cider
cb= currant berry cider
Sycr= yep

The ESBs are my Red Hook ESB clone, a 10 gallon batch split. Half was fermented with 1098 the other half was fermented with S-05. Let me know what you think.

Yeah Scturo's kid made the label for me. I love it!

 

[fourfarthing]

Already in the cellar ready for some tasty explorations.

 

[TwistedGray]

Gnarly bottling

Tried the 1098, and it was good. The only issue I have is that it lacked carbonation...very little.
