So... What did Santa bring you?

[dstockwell]

Got a weston (corona) type mill, now I need to build my Ugly Junk Corona Mill Station.

 

[Frilock]

Got a brand new kegerator now I just have to figure out where to put it. (And get a keg to go with it)

 

[govner1]

A Brew Hardware Spin Cycle, Thermopen Mk4, Crowler of Christmas Bomb, 15g Blichmann MLT

 

[dlettow]

A new mini-fridge that I can use as a second fermentation chamber. I knew it was coming since I helped pick it up, so I already order parts to built another brewpi for it.

 

[Tommydee]

10 gallon BC for BIAB, pH meter, How to Brew, some beer glasses, scale. In fact, I pretty much got only beer stuff this xmas to fuel the new hobby

 

[Murphys_Law]

Where did you get the glasses etched? My wife got me a brewery logo designed for Father's day this year, and I'd love to get it on a set of glasses!

Not sure, they were a gift. I think some place out of St Louis. Let me see if my daughter remembers where they got them...

 

[Devon]

My SWMBO gave me a drill to run my Corona Mill, and my father gave me a new propane burner to replace my old leaky one.

 

[treacheroustexan]

Brewing related: lots of LHBS gift certificates, inkbird controller for kegerator, a book on hops and a fancy leather brew day journal!

 

[grrickar]

I got a book on brewing and an insulated SS growler. Oh, and a half dozen glass screw top bottles for my kombucha. Couple of brewing related t-shirts. Santa was good to me this year

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

New 30 bottle wine chiller and digital thermometer, coffee beans and some clothing.

 

[allanmorgan]

Got my first keg and CO2 tank. Also a Tilt. Not bad at all.

 

[alexnova]

Two gift cards to homebrew shops (one even came with a cool looking glass and hop candy), a bottle of the Heavy Seas-Stone collab (Imperial Brown IPA) and a book called Goodnight Beer.

 

[griz_brew]

A chest freezer and all the stuff to build my first keezer! Finally done with bottling!

 

[jimyson]

A couple Teku glasses and some other non brew related things that I've wanted. It's all about the kids tho

 

[Sammy86]

6 awesome local beers from Connecticut. Nice stuff we don't get out west.

What you get if you don't mind me asking???

Also, got a confirmation e-mail saying my new 10 gallon brew kettle is arriving on Tuesday!

 

[MrBJones]

My wife and son (who also brews) really took care of me!

JaDeD Hydra chiller
TrubTrapper
Refractometer
Bench Capper
Gordon Strong's "Brewing Better Beer"
Hardwood mash paddle
Leather-bound brewing journal
6.5 gal carboy
And for when the brewing is done for the day, a thistle glass and some really nice shirts

 

[sbartelski]

3/8 SS wort chiller, beer books, refractometer and a Tilt Brewometer.

Just ordered all the parts to use them:

1. BT dongle to connect the Tilt to my brewPi
2. Ballock QD connector and adapter for the chiller (will be used "inside out", wort through the chiller standing in a bucket of ice)

Santa came a bit early this year, and brought tickets to the Packers game on the 24th. Great game, its always fun to see the Vikings loose!!

 

[jbunton]

I guess I was good and bad santa brought me a win in Cleveland on the 24th when I was there, but also gave me a super nasty case of food poisoning from the Texas Roadhouse in Erie, Pa on the way home. Needs less to say spend the last 36hrs in bed and in the bathroom!

 

[jbunton]

Couldn't even go enjoy Christmas dinner with the family yesterday. I was left home alone to suffer lol. Can't wait to be better. A good case of food poisoning is like satans in your insides:-(. Wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy even the Baltimore ravens!

I guess that's what you get for living in PA and being a Browns fan.

 

[Maylar]

5 gallon big mouth carboy and 3 lbs of clover honey. I guess my son wants some mead...

I don't live in pa only drive through from Ontario Canada. Lol. Still fighting it!

 

[atoughram]

And I've got a bit of salmon to put in it...

 

[mbobhat]

A newborn! 8lb 7oz

 

[Dfitz]

Congatulations!! A better gift could not be had. I pray mother and child are well.

Mom and son are doing fine, now I have a reason to open some Three Floyds Dark Lord Imperial Stout a buddy gave me! Too tired to brew now but most likely will do something on 1st bday.

OK, then just for being a Browns fan.

 

[BeerAddikt]

A Midwest Supplies gift card and a wicked hangover (although I had more to do with that). I need to learn to lay off the home brew and random shots of unwanted liquor on Christmas Eve. Christmas day was rough.

 

[bucfan1234]

How to Brew by Palmer, a cool Best of BYO edition with 250 clone recipes in it, and universal approval of my beers by family and friends who were visiting for the holidays.

In fact, I put a new keg of Centennial IPA and a Sam Adams White Christmas clone on for the weekend, and the IPA keg was kicked before sunset on Christmas eve! I was really happy that everyone seemed to genuinely enjoy the beer that I brewed.
