What came in the mail for you today?

[OG-wan Kenobi]

After 3 weeks it has finally arrived

apparently my site glass is on back order

 

[OakIslandBrewery]

I got a refund check from MoreBeer for the Komos V2 kegerator I order in December. After phone calls, emails and nothing but disappointment I gave up and canceled my order. What a disorganized place to do business with!, but I did get a quick return of my money so they have that part down real good.

Tapcooler bottle filler with an intertap faucet attachment and a ball lock disconnect for the gas line. Time to bring my bottling game to the next level.

I've been looking at ordering that from Ama ALMIGHTY Zon or Northern Brewer for 3 weeks. Have not push the button on it yet with the accessories. Let us know please how it works out.

I'll be filling some bottles tomorrow to share with my coworkers this week, I'll let you know how it goes.
I ordered mine from Great Fermentations and highly recommend them. Same price as Amazon and it costs enough to qualify for free shipping.

I’m semi-local to Great Fermentations but would still order from them if I wasn’t. But, everyone has their favorite place!

Ive got a tapcooler CP bottle filler and it’s absolutely fantastic! Easy to use and clean, and super nifty. If I had to state a downside I’d say that counter pressure filling is a bit slow if you’re filling a case or more worth of beer, but they’re all that way. I love being able to bottle crystal clear beer from my keg and having it fully carbonated weeks later just from keeping the CO2 in the beer. I’ve got a family get-together in a week (the first time seeing my parents and brother in 15mo!) and I’ll be bottling a case of beers with the tap cooler. I’ve got full confidence that it’ll be an easy run and will result in great bottled beers.

I pretty much gave up bottling when I got my kegerator last year but I need to be able to give a few bottles to my LHBS for sampling and a few folks I used to gift beer to. Wondering why I stopped giving away free beer

Some tool to help me save money on beer.

Revamping my “on the go” keg setup- tired of lugging around that damn 10# CO2 tank just to push beer from one corny for a day or two. Thought about the paintball tank instead of a hand pump, but dont want to deal with fiddling with a mini regulator, nor explaining to drunk people, “no, you don't have to pump it, it’s on gas”

A FotHB package ‘O beer arrived from @3 Dawg Night today. I was a little nervous about what I might find inside when I found the box. Everything was safe and sound though! Thank you. I’ve set the blonde and raspberry aside to age a little like suggested and have the others chilling and settling for some weekend sampling. I like the labels and coasters.

 

[Dgallo]

It’s time to get funky!

 

[Brewbuzzard]

I really needed this smaller flask all I have are 5000ml and sometimes that's too big. And this is the third Fermonster.

A pound each of Citra and Sabro from YVH. Need the Citra for the Wookie Jack clone I brewed last weekend, and planning a Mom's Day brew of the house Citra/Sabro IPA (named it Sabrotooth, someone else did too but I like mine better because no Mosaic in mine). Now trying to decide if it's time to get the summer's pack of Loki yeast to ferment it on or just use the Notty I already have. I've done it with both and the one on Loki was eminently better; just might not be warm enough to do it yet.

Also starting to research stainless mash tuns; we've got some money coming to us in July and I've been told I can get one new slightly expensive toy for the brewery. Decided a long time ago that I want a new mash tun, preferably a Blichmann with the brewvision thing already installed. If I have to go a cheaper route I can do that too, and buy another brewvision to go with it.

No pictures today, but I just got myself an RO water system, as well as a hodge podge of test tubes, centrifuge tubes and Erlenmeyer flasks for my yeast lab.

Yea, those mycology guys have plenty of DIY plans for them. I'll probably think about it when I have a fixed location for streaking plates and stuff.

lol, i bought a couple D.O.E. 6" HEPAs off ebay, and screwed one to the side of a storage tote, use a blower and cardboard box for air flow....working on my koji skills!

4 lbs of hops from YVH, via FedEx. Only ordered 4 days ago.

 

[grampamark]

Eighty-five lbs of base malts (2-row, Pilsner, and wheat). Twenty-five pounds of grain and 13 packets of dry yeast are supposed to arrive tomorrow. The total order is about a six month supply.

 

[DuncB]

@grampamark
Relieved six months otherwise you were in for a busy weekend.

 

[3 Dawg Night]

USPS Tracking:
Update 1: "This item doesn't exist yet."
Update 2: "Arrived."

 

[easttex]

A pair of used pin lock kegs.

All because the wife is interested in brewing for an upcoming competition and I wasn't sure we'd have enough.

They even threw a copy of the July/August 2013 Zymurgy in with the kegs as well.

 

[mulletmaster]

Got a lb each of Mosaic, El Dorado, and Cashmere from YVH.
