Today I am a man...

YES!

I've bottled my last beer, and I'll never have to worry about bottling again! I have three corny kegs and a tap setup!

Now, I'll just have to brew some beer to fill them up. Man this is so frustrating, I'm so excited to brew, but have no more free time until August 8th. I think I may have to spend a full day brewing two batches. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!

I got the setup off a very nice brewer gent. who is moving out of country. I found it on www.craigslist.org

For those of you who don't know, it's a flea-market and I often see homebrew equipment on sale from people in the Wash. D.C., Northern Virginia, Maryland area. It's a really great site to find ANYTHING on!

If you browse around the "casual encounters" section, you'll see that you truly, absolutely, can find ANYTHING you want

I'm tempted to just buy a kegging set up now and building a tap setup later. I have a hefe that needs to be bottled and I'm sick of bottles. I'm ready to rail-road SWMBO into buying me a Kegerator. I think it's going to be on my X-mas list: either we get a new fridge and I get the current fridge put down in the basement or I get a full-on kegerator. I'm sick of bottling. I think it'll be an easy sell:

1. We've been saying for years that we need a new fridge.
2. She's tired of the bottles.
3. She's tired of beer in the basement stairwell.
4. She's tired of beer ingredients all over the place (they could be stored in said kegerator)
5. She's had it with the floor being sticky from bottling day.

This would solve both of our problems in one fell swoop.
