Apparently stim and dal decided to get started early last night around 11 and brewed all night. Dal thought he might have used round up instead of starsan so it sounds like they had a good time!
Hahaha. Wonder if it works...?

4500 pounds and $3000 worth of grain signed up and paid for in 10 days. Not bad folks, especially less than a month since the last one.
Lincoln Lager?I guess I need a recipe for a president's ale.
damnit!
I've been working for the same company since 2001. Never had Pres Day off. Got up, got showered, got dressed, drove 35 minutes to Durham.
The place is empty.
Calender of events on the wall by the coffee machine says;
President's Day - New Company Holiday for 2011.
Just remembered the LHBS is closed on Monday's and I got the 3 yr old for the day. Guess we will work on his bike skills instead.
I'm still working on the list of mistakes I made Saturday for my first AG, 1 of which is drinking too much before I got to sparging.

Definitely wasn't his fault. He sent me 2 links, I used the second(intended) recipe up until I got to the boil, then in my buzzed mind, somehow opened the first link and thought I got the wrong amount of hops.
Keep in mind that the LHBS lost my order when I went to pick it up, and in their hurry to crush all my grains, put all the grain in 1 big bag. so the grain bill was already different when I started.

Dang I knew I should have said something. I would have invited you over for a brew. I am fortunate to live less than a mile down the road. I was the long haired hippie lookin guy.
Your beer was good. It could have used a little more hops but then again I say that about a lot of beers including my own. Keep at it. they tend to get better and better.
You live down the road from American Brew Master, or 5th season? I live uncomfortably close to ABM.

I live uncomfortably far from most things in Raleigh with ABM being one of them. I'm hoping they start a drop off point in the Clayton/Garner/Fuquay area soon.
Thanks for the incredible chance to get grain for my new brewing habit.
I just ran across this Raleigh grain buy To day, It may have been to late.
do not know if it is a done deal.
But put me in for the next one.
I PMed about getting a GW2row.
It all started when My son had to go and give me a Mr Beer for my last Birthday. Now I am all Keg, all grain and all clone. Of course after I am done tinkering It is not to much clone, but very good.
On tap, I have the biggest beer i have very brewed a Denny's rye IPA. It is carbonating in a Keg as we speak 63 IBU's and 9.2 ABV. spicy Dry hopped in the keg with colombus and cascade. I have been BIAB and made a whole 2nd running that is a great session beer.
The nice thing is when I get to much I can always ship beer over to my son at Chapel hill !
I ordered 2 bags of CM 2ROW.
In the spirit of happy brewing, if you want one of them, and can come to the pick up date, you can just pay me for it there and take it with you.
Very cool of you, Hannable. I will say that there was more than one person that PM'ed me a little too late. I think one of those guys would take your other sack of 2-row if you want to unload it.
sounds like round 5 won't necessarily be a few 'months' off. Probably a few days...
So, Walker... Any idea when you'll get back from Bermuda / receive the grain ??
I don't know if it's possible, but if it is on the next buy we might also consider including cleaning supplies. I just checked the back of the North Country catalog and a 50lb pail of PBW is $125. Split five ways that is less than 1/2 of retail.
StarSan comes in a 5gal pail or a 4 x 1gal case for $118. That would be $29.50 for a gallon with no messy splitting up to do. Retail on 1gal (4x32oz bottles) is $66.
I don't know if stuff like this messes up the pallet load and thus becomes impractical, but if we can add them I think it's worth a look.
