I'm drunk, let's start there. I hope to brew (actually brew and not talk about wanting, needing, having to brew) this weekend. I have been on an extended hiatus for a whole host of reasons but I've recently realized something. I'm actually a little scared to brew. I am one of the guys who got bit bad by the bug early and went whole hog on a build, then got sidelined by life. Good news is I have what I think will be a great system to brew on once I finally sack up and do it. There have been plenty of reasons (legit reasons) that I haven't brewed in the past but now I'm just stalling. I have the system now I just need to brew instead of waiting until everything is perfect. I'm brewing this weekend come hell or high water!! I don't freaking care about my mash PH (I do, but that's another thread). I don't freaking care about my efficiency (of course I do, I have twins on the way!!) and lastly I don't freaking care about maintaining fermentation temps!! (Oh hell yeah I do, but I'll work with what I got for now)

End of self promoting....ish rant.

BREW ON!!!:rockin:
 
Talk about procrastination. I still need to bottle a beer I brewed back in December. Not this past December, the one before that!
 
What the ...... ? Sack up! If I can do it using only one arm you can do it..... (then send some my way) Did you say that you had twins on the way? If that's the case I would be brewing every chance you get. Gets a heck of a lot tougher when something (kid, cat, dog, annoyed wife, brother, sil, bil, grand parents, school work. ...) is underfoot! Exspecially if it doesn't drink beer.
 
Well I did it........... I finally brewed. The brew day was kinda like falling off a bike, on a mountain trail, and bouncing off every freaking rock or tree on the way down the mountain. You name it, it went wrong. Good news is I only missed my OG by 5 pts so my efficiency was pretty decent for first time using my mill. IIRC it was 72% but hard to really nail down with so many errors. Oh well, now I have some more things to forget until I get to brew again in another 4-5 years. Maybe by that time my ferm chamber will be done........
