What are you drinking now?

[Billy-Klubb]

Cat got run over. Just buried him. ****. Having a dirty bastard in his memory.

that sucks man. I'm sorry to hear that.

So, I see you like your own Instagram photos. So lame. If you want to follow a real account, look up @theemptypint.

Drinking water, no beer tonight. Although I could use a few. Had a few places to be and a (dry) going away party. And my one and only crown came out earlier. Stupid thing has been in there for 17 years and chewing a freakin starburst candy pulls it out. Starting to look like BK over here.

smile pretty for the camera!

Coffee. Finally decided to end a few weeks of lazy and get up to work out again.

 

[Baja_Brewer]

Seriously?! If you have one to spare, I need a 2011 to complete a 2010 to 2015 vertical.

No problem, I'll earmark one for you!

[Hello]

Putting some Old Chub in my mouth while watching the ipa I brewed yesterday fermenting with wlp644. I don't think I have ever had an airlock bubble this fast before... It smells like citrus and pineapple and I can't wait for it to finish.

That sounds delightful. The yeast is intended to have citrus notes or was it your recipe?

Got drunk and made purchases. Brewhardware.com is the real winner tonight, stilldragon got some off of me to. Camlocks, keggle hardware, a chugger, ssr's, other fittings, hundred bucks in tubing, bunch of hops, some otter, the only thing I didn't buy was the elements because I made my purchases from other vendors first before discovering that the amazon vendors don't combine shipping. Need to go back and just get those from brewhardware as well. I am going to bed before tonight gets more expensive.

Drinking water, cause I need it.

haha I do that too. Are you moving to all electric? Automated?


Coffee & water. I need to get going today, so much work to do.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

Holy damn, 80 pages to catch up on? Lets see how much actual work I get done in order to catch up on the thread.
Thanks

No automation but an all electric three vessel with a pump. I like batch sparging and I like my brewing being hands on. The pump might have had more to do with my alcohol intake than my needs but as I move to ten gallon batches I think it will come in handy and save my back. I have been brewing inside on an electric stove for a long time, just want it to be faster like propane but still inside. I like the idea of a recirculating mash with temp control being part of my not too distant future as well.

Water. Not ready for the work week.

The citrus came mostly from hop bursting with citra, but the yeast is super fruity too. The yeast is labeled as Brett but there is controversy regarding it. Several people have been studying and sequenced the strain saying it is actually sacc, White Labs is currently checking into this. I don't care if it is brett or sacc that acts like brett, it's my favorite yeast to use for IPA

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Coffee.

Attempting to start this week with a more positive attitude.

@supervisingchildren - You get that snowblower fixed up?

The only reason I'd want a definite on whether it is brett is to ensure I am using equipment for a sour versus anything else. That does sound like a great IPA.

On the water now.

Looks like you didn't overcook it this time.

Never happens here at my house.

@coldcrash likes it well-done so I can't hate on him.

I need a keg to kick so I can keg a cream ale and free-up a primary. Might put the gallon or so I have left into flip-top howlers and keg the cream ale today. I have a spare keg but that's for the nitro setup I'm installing on the freezer side of the fridge later this week.

 

[Remmy]

No bacon here for @WesleyS. Next best thing.

Aside from getting completely sick over the weekend, I could not do my first all-grain. It won't stop snowing. Our small yard has three and a half feet accumulated, there just isn't anywhere to put it. It doesn't look like it is going to stop either, 7 day forecast shows snow and even lower temps. I'm either going to have to find a reasonable way to do it inside on the stove or just get ingredients for a partial mash in the meantime. I don't know.

Feeling better thank you, body is just tired.

Trying some coffee.

Have a garage? If not, shovel a 4x4' space to put your burner on.

 

[Hello]

Coffee. I just had the most bizarre phone call with my auto-loan company. I'm paying my truck off early and the girl could not seem to give me a straight story one way or the other about how to do that. Good lord.

"But why would you want to do that?!"

This country make me sick sometimes. People are getting progressively dumber each day.

So not only are you forced talk to someone that can't help you; you now have to explain financial strategy with them.

 

[thatjonguy]

On the Donut Shop coffee from my Keurig. Nothing fancy today folks.

Pretty impressive, if it had a little more body, they would have nailed it. Thanks DC!

That's the flaw of the base beer (Buried Hatchet) too.

Coff.
