Butter Vanilla emulsion and Sugar Cookie extract. Gonna try a small batch , maybe 1.5 or 2.5 gallon of experimental Sugar Cookie Christmas brew. I'm already making a 5 gal white Christmas Ale with the ubiquitous vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and sweet orange peel so if this small batch crashes and burns not a huge loss.

Sounds good, other than the nutmeg.....

A new co2 tank, some tubing, a dual body regulator, and a picnic tap to finish off my kegging supplies
Yesterday I got 3 more lid seals for my 30 liter Speidel fermenter. They tend to get stretched out a bit after several uses, to the point of not sealing very well. They can also a bit hard to find occasionally, so I like to grab a few when I see them in stock. Also in the same order are a pair of DuoTight QD's. I've been wanting to try them, hopefully they work well. I love the simplicity of DuoTight/EVABarrier.
In the same order, but not arriving until Monday is a Blow Tie spunding valve.

I got my new tri clamp heating elements from the Kal at the Electric Brewery. This is truly an upgrade from the plug end elements that I had. The plug end ones generate a lot of heat and sooner or later cause some melting and issues. These are built like tanks and are hard wired and still removeable from the boil kettle to clean it out without dragging the cord! Best upgrade in a long time! Are we really ever done upgrading our rigs?!

I love this bucket too ! I make more 3 gallon batches than 5 so it sees more action in the last 2 years than my 2 7 gallon Chapman's. Great little SS bucket that could !!!
Thanks for validating my purchase! I have a plastic bucket that size, just knowing it will need replacement some day, I’ve been looking for one at a reasonable price point without success, so when this went on sale I decided it was the right time.
Three of these 12 BOC arrived yesterday. Thanks Sean!
New grain mill arrived today, the Mighty Mill 3-roller from Morebeer. After an hour and a bit of assembly, including a lot of cussing and 'where the **** did that nut go this time', milled grain for an impromptu BIAB Wit tomorrow. Looking forward to it!

The new 65L gen 4 Brewzilla arrived yesterday with its insulating jacket, an extension collar (I hate boilovers) and a new pulley system. Will post pics tonight once I get her out to the shop and start running some PBW through it. Makes the 35L look tiny sitting side by side lmao
Those look great! I work out of Greeley! We should meet up and have a brew!A dozen new glasses because I keep breaking my old ones
Thanks! It's funny. I moved here for college back in 2010 and hated it so much I couldn't wait to get out but since then, it has grown on me where I actually quite enjoy it here. I joke around with my beer friends that Weldwerks is reason enough to stick around!
Amen to that!!! Weldwerks is on point for sure!Thanks! It's funny.

I joke around with my beer friends that Weldwerks is reason enough to stick around!
I’m looking forward to tasting this one, as I’ve brewed it in the past.

This one is from Micromatic, and interfaces with a standard US shank. Micromatic calls it a Swing Lever Faucet. (The ones from Lukr need adapters.)

Santa said, “Too pricey for Bad Boys, but if you’re VERY good you can put it on a Birthday list.”
He, he. I already know what toys Santa is bringing this year, so I guess I can wait.

I'll be able to try it out in a couple weeks with an Altbier I'll be kegging soon. It's a "side pull" faucet for Czech type pours. Basically, they can make a Czech style pour with a creamy head (Hladinka style), or a whole mug full of foam (Mlíko style) if desired, or anything in between, depending on how far open you pull the lever (and when), and whether you dip the end of the faucet below the surface of the beer (and when). That's my poor explanation of it, anyway. I haven't actually used one before, but I have seen them in action (and enjoyed the results).

Sounds like a winner ! Czech is one of my fave styles. But I'll just have to make it along some how with my run of the mill Perlick foam controls
. Some of us can't afford Starwars type advanced gear !!!
In yesterday’s mail.
Not in the mail, but by virtue of a recent birthday, my lovely 'sposa got me a refractometer! And she doesn't even drink the beer! How cool is that???
Santa came early and brought me 50 lbs 2 row pale malt, 10 lbs of specialty grains, another 1.5 gal Torpedo Keg, a Brew Built HTL controller and a Brew Built Boil controller Friday.
