Bottled 28 bombers and six 12's of Centennial Blonde Ale.

Took delivery of my keg starter kit.

Guess I'll keg the other 5 gallons tomorrow. First kegging experience! Now I gotta find a CO2 supplier near me.

Hmm..wrong thread?. I tried.. most places around me only got 3 cases.. sold out in minutes. . Spent days looking. Glad to hear a good beer came outta it :D cheers!!
 
Oops, yeah wrong thread. But anyway the bevmo near me had a whole display of them. There must have been 25 boxes or so, with more in the cooler. When I saw it, I screamed and freaked out.

Honestly, I thought only about half of them were good. Nothing really great either and most of the hoppy ones were old. I would not buy it again even if more was available. $25 was a joke for that 12-pack.
 
Helped my brother bottle his first batch in 5 years! A milk stout that was very tasty and sweet (FG came in at 1.020).

Racked my 6.5 gallons of English Brown into my bottling bucket from my conical last night, then put in the fridge at 34* since I can only get my fermentation chamber down to 45* while my garage is in the 90's. Cleaned my keg this morning before work, just need to clean the extra bottles, prime it, then keg and bottle tonight, yeah buddy.
 
Cleaned a recently kicked keg, cleaned the kegerator lines, out a dip tube trap back on a keg , ordered whole hops & pellet hops for my next three brews.

Tasted about 6-8 types of homebrew, the best being a coffee stout and Thai lager with citra and lime leaves... Both were awesome but the Thai did better in 96* heat today in SC! Bought ingredients for a blonde ale that ill jazz up with cascade and centennial.

Kegged up an IPA. Warm flat hydrometer sample was tasty, it'll be difficult waiting for the cool carbed stuff.
 
Brewed two gallons of cream stout and broke my thermometer.

Bottled my Honey Ale with my son. This is the clearest beer I ever made and I was bummed because I forgot to put in the Irish moss! Can't wait till the bottles are ready to go!
 
Busy day at the brewery. First I racked my six month old lambeec onto ten pounds of Montmorency cherries:

Then I split my two week old saison. Three one gallon batches on two pounds each of mango, kiwi and pomegranate respectively. The last three gallons had Cantillon Brett added. Now to wait!

It doesn’t look like it, but did you do anything to pasteurize the fruit? Last time I added fresh fruit (apricots) I briefly pasteurized but it wasn't enough. Most of those bottles became gushers.
