I didn't know good beer back then, so we served wine. :-(

The kicker is that we rent where we live. So this last summer our oven was backfiring regularly...pretty fun seeing a fireball explode from the broiler door. So the land lord cheaped out and got a new oven...its only 24 inches wide on the outside....this oven is so small so we are limited. I would love to fry a turkey but my little one has a peanut allergy so since peanut oil is the best thats out I guess....

Thats nice that your Aunt would kick in some money. My sister and her family come as well and I wouldnt mind if they kicked in a little money but it is what it is. I think next year we will tell people to bring a side dish and dessert.

Not sure whether we're going in the morning or not. Should try to get some half-off stuff myself!
Went to see Rogue One today with my youngest. I was actually impressed with it, lived up to the hype.

I am going to try to grill turkey in future, maybe also smoke them more often. The recipe we use is from Giada De Laurentiis. We stuff the turkey with oranges lemons onions and fresh Rosemary sage and oregano. I'm doing this from memory here so I could be a little off. Then I mix melted butter and olive oil with Herbes de Provence and rub the turkey outside and under skin and let it sit overnight in Saran Wrap.

Alternator hell yesterday, took me too long to figure out how to adjust the tension screw and ahh back hurts

Yeah keno I like that idea. Honestly I'm way happier everybody bringing something or everything haha
Saw it as well with the Kids, well done.
Nice that Disney did not shy way from the ending.
That's a great stuffing for turkey. My Mother-in-law taught me to use citrus in the turkey back when I first married my wife. It adds an interesting perspective to the gravy as well!
A grinding alternator is a sign of miss-alignment between the drive pulley and the generator. It will likely kill the bearings. Is the tension too tight?
Busy day today! Happy third day of Christmas! Getting some work done around the house.
Don't know if we're having cheesesteak or Italian sausage sandwiches for dinner tonight. Should be good either way!

So do you guys ferment in plastic or glass??
I use plastic buckets but just had a family member give me 2 old carboys. I want to use them but am scared of cleaning them?? I guess I need a carboy strap or something?

Here goes another question, we do this lake thing with the RV at a cousins house every 4th of july. So this year he wants a light beer for those that enjoy BMC, my wit beer which we finished quite fast last summer and a good malty beer.
So I saw Yoopers yellow fizzy beer might give that a 3 gallon batch to try out. Then I need a malty one at 5 gallons and am thinking a dunkelweiss....anyone have any good recipes they tried and liked?

So, turns out we had sausages. There are a few leftovers if you hurry over. Glad to have you!
I have a Bock that is lagering right now. It was my first lager and I hope it is reasonably malty. I won't be tapping into that until Lent, though so I won't know for sure.
The dunkel sounds like a good one. I don't have a recipe, though.

I enjoyed the one Munich Dunkel I made. Just tap'd 5 gallons of Helles
Small batches I ferment in Corny Kegs, 10 gallon batches I use my Speidel.
On the third day of Christmas, Wife gave to me:View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1482918075.913389.jpg
Small batches, I ferment in anything. I've got glass Big Mouth bubblers, plastic 2-gallon buckets, glass 1-gallon "carboy" jugs, 1/2-gallon mason jars, etc. But, now that I've got a Pico, almost everything is in a small corny keg. I've got the 1.75 gallon that came with the Pico and I've got a 3 gallon that I bought specifically for a 2.5 gallon batch.
