Ho ho ho! What beer gear did Santa get you for Christmas '09?

[punk_rockin2001]

I'll start! I got my 12" false bottom for my new 10 gal mash tun! Wooo! Its gonna be a good year! Merry Christmas everyone!!

 

[Arneba28]

I just got a corona grain mill. Not the monster mill I wanted but beggers cant be choosers!!!!

 

[iddqd]

I got a 10 liter pot from my mom. I already have a 5 liter pot, so I'll start doing split boils soon. I also got some money, so I'll probably buy some other brewing gear next week.

 

[Jaybird]

too early to tell.

 

[Skins_Brew]

March pump! Cant wait to get home from the inlaws so i can start playing with it!

 

[phrogpilot73]

SWMBO's still sleeping, so I'm looking at wrapped gifts wondering if there's any brew gear in there...

 

[david_42]

Not a thing.

Santa's GPS lead him astray and he crashed in Hog Hollow.

 

[gplutt]

I got an Essential Oil Extractor

 

[HBRunner]

i a SS drip tray for my keezer...


and hopefully more stuff later today!

 

[BBKing]

So far SWMBO got me a beer kit.

I go to my moms here in a few and thats where the real booty will be. I'm hoping gift certificates for my LHBS actually.

 

[IrregularPulse]

Won't find out until around 7 tonight when we to to my parents. Swmbo and I didn't buy for each other cause were going to build a bar instead. So I guess I got $2-300 for a bar build this morning by not opening any presents

 

[humann_brewing]

remember, without pictures it didn't really happen

That's a terrible thing to say about your mom.

SWMBO told me I could get all the stuff I needed to upgrade by beer fridge from 1 tap to 3(or 4) taps.

 

[Desert_Sky]

My wife rocks....

Scored a whole bunch of these in various styles. It's our new brewery logo

Your wife is aware that to go from 1 tap to 3-4, you need a monster mill right?

Very cool glasses. I got a set of 4 pint glasses a heavy glass pitcher with a generic logo for my Furnace Room Brewery last year along with a tap happen with the same.

 

[erock2112]

Founders Breakfast Stout, Olde Mecklenburg Yule Bock, and a cash wad going straight into some combination of: decent thermometer, refractometer, grain crusher, maybe a turkey fryer, and equipment for converting my chest freezer into a keezer! Awesome.

 

[phrogpilot73]

Woohoo! I got a Minibrew conical fermenter, Clone Brews book, a stir starter + 1 L flask, and the accessory kit for my Blichmann Beer Gun...

 

[SkiGladys]

Perlick faucets

 

[nebben]

2 Corny kegs (that have been scrubbed and refurbished by SWMBO), CO2 lines+beer lines+single regulator, 20lb CO2 tank, bottle tree, and a sweet ass shirt

.

...and I'm in sunny Arizona for a few more days. Yahoo!

 

[Shooter]

I got a set of 12oz Guinness glasses and a copy of Ray Daniels' Designing Great Beers!!!

 

[Razorbrew]

No equipment per se, but my wife gave me a hand written gift certificate to be used at the beer store. The certificate amount was for infinity.

Totally ordering that shirt right now... HAHAH

 

[Donner]

Designing Great Beers and a $50 gift certificate to my favorite beer store (Brewmasters warehouse, of course) from the wife.

three perlicks, shanks and mounting hardware to convert my fridge to a kegerator from the parents.

Now, the only hard thing to figure out is do i go for ingredients with my certificate or do i upgrade the brewing hardware. Towards a mill perhaps? I've got a good all-grain setup going, so i don't know what to do with it exactly. Maybe a march pump for turning my IC into a whirlpool IC?

 

[Raveontec]

Wifey got me a refractometer.

 

[trailblazer]

9 gallon demijohn, corny with conections, used steel 20lb co2 with regulator. gift certificate visa to get homebrew stuff which bought me another corney keg.

 

[Coastarine]

I got carhartt bib duck overalls for brewing in. I need to exchange them for a bigger size tomorrow morning but eventually they will get my name and "brewmaster" either embriodered or on a patch.

Also, $50 to BMW.

 

[HIM_Tattoos]

Santa hooked himself up with 2 March pumps, and got hooked up with, a bottle/carboy cleaner, Imperial IPA kit, bottle tree, Zyrmurgy subscription, stir plate and bar, Designing Great Beers by Ray Daniels and How to Brew by John Palmer,and an aeration system.

 

[Fingers]

I'm going to be a beer judge! (I hope.) SWMBO enrolled me in an exam. It's a bit of a road trip because there aren't any exams around my area so I'll be travelling to another province in June.

I got an Arduino from my parents to build my electric brew rig, and a selection of various fine beers from around the world from my son.

 

[remilard]

I happened to buy everything for the chilling system on my new rig yesterday (minus a spare march pump I had laying around), but that wasn't actually a Christmas present.

No actual brewing related presents, despite my dropping multiple hints about wanting a cold room. Go figure.

 

[claphamsa]

I got a love temp controller for my laggering fridge that shoudl be delivered tomorrow

BTW, I call these my brewniform.

 

[TheFlyingSparge]

Wife got me a Beer Gun. Mother-in-law got me a 365 beer calendar. I was happy.

 

[PseudoChef]

March Pump. 10g batches here I come!

Also, $100 to be spent at RebelBrewer.com - Mother's orders. Yes ma'am. Thinking Beer Gun and either bulk specialty grains or a couple more cornies.

 

[MikeFlynn74]

 

[sulawesi]

I got my CO2 tank filled.

 

[Brew-boy]

My wife got me Designing great beers and a clone recipe book. A 5 gallon better bottle a hop bag a Stainless steel racking cane and a bunch of beers I have never had.

 

[azscoob]

My wife got me a digital scale, a 6 gal better bottle with stopper and another airlock, a Barley Crusher, and all the stuff needed to brew her favorite wheat beer. From my friend I got a new Perlick faucet (couldnt get me 2 as they only had one left at LHBS), he also got me a gift certificate there so I could get the other one. I asked my wife where she got the ingredient list for the wheat, she told me that she went through my brewlog and found the one I made for our halloween party, and bought the stuff from that! I am amazed she kept a smack pack of Wyeast 3068 hidden from me for a week, in my beer fridge, in plain sight next to the other yeast packs!!! I need to keep better inventory!

 

[cheezydemon3]

Not a thing.

Santa's GPS lead him astray and he crashed in Hog Hollow.

He covered the kids, but must have left mine at the north pole.
