I work for a north shore village. It was ugly today. A bunch of rich people yelling at me for things beyond our control. Got some OT at least.

I can only imagine, I heard some idiots on channel 5 bitching about how their entitlement wasn't working for them...

 

[ylpaul2000]

I know that YLPaul caught some water. I haven't heard about the severity yet though. I'm wishing him the best. Four years ago, I had five feet in my finished basement. That was the worst!! I'm pretty sure that he isn't in that shape.

About 6 inches ruined all of my carpet a bunch of drywall and a bag of grain from the last group buy. I was most angry about the grain!

 

[ArtimusBeerimus]

Damn.

Bill... Carpet group buy?

 

[forstmeister]

OT and hopefully some home brew to soothe the soul.

Actually drinking a Finch's Threadless IPA. It pays to have hook ups.

Bill I had a pint of that yeast when I go it those sixtels, I read somewhere it was just a basic east coast ale..and the brewery is very willing to hand a jar over if you ask. I am almost 100% certain I tossed that yeast on my compost.. I'll check my beer fridge if its still hanging around, its yours.

Dave, did you like the Finch's yeast?

 

[forstmeister]

Dave, did you like the Finch's yeast?

I brewed with it once a couple years back. Turned out real good. I haven't gotten any in a while unfortunately.

 

[Neopol]

Dave, did you like the Finch's yeast?

I honestly never tried it, once I learned it was a standard strain and read the cross-description, I determined it didn't fit my brewing tastes..I just cant recall if I flushed it or not or saved it for my compost pile..if its still in the fridge its yours..I got sidetracked on that kolsch2565..having a half lagered one now, cloudy yet still tasty..but I effed it up its 7%.

[cadwallion]

Trying to convince myself I don't need a sack of Honey Malt, Victory, Special B, and Biscuit. Losing badly. Anyone for a split?

 

[Neopol]

Just drop em on there they'll fill in a week..

 

[ylpaul2000]

Hey bill, I added some items and the correct total came up in my group buy 8 page, however on the dash board (top orders) my total is way higher than it should be. Thoughts?

I think that's top orders of all time...I think.

 

[ylpaul2000]

Oh that makes sense, I think?

 

[Neopol]

Yes that appears to be a cummulative number...

I've been trying desperately to beat down the urge to throw down a smoked malt split... Just have to make it another week. Almost... there... must... resist...

 

[Neopol]

Almost... there... must... resist...

Uh ohh Shatner in the house....

 

[ArtimusBeerimus]

Uh ohh Shatner in the house....

The other option was "Resistance is futile." At least this way I have a fighting chance.

 

[bmason1623]

we're at 371 sacks. I know the total reads less but look at the "grain list" tab in the spreadsheet; in particular cell C21. Read it, admire it, keep it to yourself.

 

[homebrewfrank]

Sooooo with all this new grain heading our way, im sure i missed the discussion on 'storage', anyone know of any good deals on buckets/lids?
