2 more minutes. Precision is important

I'd be asleep within minutes ... without having a beer!

I dont know how I survived college up to this point, before I started brewing and having so many beers around

U better be getting Jedis all night!

 

[TNGabe]

Yessir I do, not in that volume, hope that's okay.


Headed to olive garden shortly to meet up with some of the wifes relatives, god I despise that place. If I wanted fake Italian food I'd go to pizza hut

I think my brain would explode if I had to choose between olive garden and pizza hut. Won't be needing that kind of volume on yeast for a while.

 

[batinovichb]

Strong kind of fruity tasting.

Damn! I was just thinking about Petrol! Wish I could head there now, but wife, torn apart house, and shutdown beer budget will keep that from happening. Drink one for me!

Guess my watch is fast. Yeti is next up. Going to have a couple before the concert tonight.

They are from way up north where a restaurant is a little diner packed inside a gas station. We have excellent local restaurants here in my area, but for some reason we ALWAYS meet up with her family at the garden or at pizza hut. Makes my brain want to explode too.

Good, when you do need this kind of volume in yeast you can build it up yourself

Thats the reason you should come by lol.

Will do!

I would choose OG. Pizza Hut is just plain horrible.

I need to get by there again soon.
I know the first thing I'd get if I was there now. 512 Pecan on nitro.

Ummmmm, yyyeeeahhhh.....

I would choose OG. Pizza Hut is just plain horrible.

It's been a long, long time since I had either one, but Pizza Hut is about the greasiest stuff ever. Greasier than Tudor's Biscuit World, where I'm pretty sure they deep fry breakfast bagels.

Finishing off an 80 Acre, torpedo on deck. I'm like a broken record this week.

What part of Maine are you in? The GF and I were just up there this summer on a road trip/vacation. What a hell of a state, although we were a little pissed we didn't see a moose the whole time we were in Maine, but lo-and-behold, literally right after we crossed the border back into New Hamsphire, there's two of them.

An autumnation to celebrate the completion o my first real boil kettle. 15 gallons installed the ball valve and brewmometer last night but finished up today with the sight glass. Calibrated it and did an hour test boil to check accuracy of thermometer and how much boil off.

With a very aggressive boil (flame cranked high) i got a little more than a gallon and a half. Actual boil off on brewday should be less. Hopefully

I'm in central Maine right now, moving south to the Portland area very soon.

Found out I still have 45 minutes before we have to leave, decided to open gabes mystery beer, with the world's hardest to remove cork. Holy hell dude I almost had to get a set of vice grips.

Nice and tasty, slightly funky farmhouse of some sort? Either way this beer is delicious.

Make sure you put a heat shield under the sight glass and thermometer. The thermo looks maybe ok, but that sight glass looks ready to screw you over.

Central Maine! We drove... around there. Mount Katahdin! It's for Katahdid folk.

I usually just use a cork screw. I've started corking and capping so there isn't a choice, plus caps are cheaper than cages. You asked me about it and I told you what it was! That should be Life of the Mind b2. Wheat saison, with oats, rhubarb, coriander, brett, lacto, and dry hopped. Pulled a sample from b3 today and it's even better. I don't know why I have such hard to get out corks. I can only assume they are slightly oversized.

Haha I've snowboarded katahdin. 12 mile hike to the summit in the winter because the tote rd is closed, beautiful up there if you're ever up here again I definitely suggest taking a day to climb it. I'd gladly tour guide you, I've been up over a hundred times. My family has made a living because of that mountain.

You do know my memory is that of a retarded gold fish right?

I thought I could taste a bit of rhubarb but didn't want to sound like a plonker.

Is this one going commercial? It should

Funny story, sort of--we stayed at a bed and breakfast at a lake right at the base of the mountain. It had been rainy and cold all week, and the lake was covered in fog. The whole time we were there we had no idea there was a mountain there. Not at all. Then on the day we leave the hosts say, "Too bad you couldn't see the mountain, it's beautiful," and I say, "Mountain? What mountain?" and they show me a picture. Never saw the damn thing, and stayed right at the base of it. :fro:

Condensation on the sight glass is an indication its getting too hot? The thermometer never felt too warm during the boil. Both the valve and glass were understandably hotter. Thought it was normal. Guess better safe than sorry. Ill order a heatshield tonight.

Having a HB brown and hoping its the last beer I have before this assignment is over

Looks like orange juice.

You definitely missed out. Here's some katahdin porn for ya. It's known for disappearing in the clouds. Sometimes when you are up there the visibility is less than 2 ft.

This is taken from my parents old house.

The rest are from on the mountain

Yup, getting it dialed. On draft and barrel version for releases. Guys went nuts for it at homebrew club, but they also said the dreaded g-word - grapefruit! Doesn't taste a damn thing like grapefruit!
