This is my ghetto ass fly sparge setup that I used to make a batch of java maker porter for nic for helping me with the brewstand. it worked a lot better than all the lifting involved with batch sparging, but not very pretty. I have a good feeling about this batch. ended up og1.050 after an almost 2 hr boil to get it reduced down to 11 gal from 13. Nic burning in the top burner for the hlt. For some kent qd's and some other various parts to hook up the pump. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). NZ pale ale (?

My buddy, nic, is handy with the metalwork and loves beer. i recently scored a pile of metal racking from my work.for free. what else would we do? Build a legit brew stand. I don't know how to weld, so i get to grind stuff.and watch. Nic does know how to weld. it's good to have a friend who's handier than me. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). NZ pale ale (?

It sure feels good to brew, its been way too long since I've basked myself in the sweet hot wort aroma. Also used some first year home grown cascade at flame-out. OG 1.048.

It's been a minute, more like 6 months since the last time we brewed together. Needless to say last night was a hot and sweaty reunion. ; ). Brewed up an IPA, NB's Dead Ringer. OG was 1.057, a little under (1.064) but it should make for a good session beer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NZ pale ale (? Kimosabe red (5.5%abv). Primary] bunch of mead and cider.

The Great Gandolfini Porter. We brewed up Edwort's Porter last night. We've never done a 10 Gal batch with almost 28 lbs of grain so we split the grain between 2 mash tuns. Should be a great beer. Named in honor of the late James Gandolifini. Http:/ www.homebrewtalk.com/f126/bee-cave-brewery-robust-porter-56768/. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). NZ pale ale (? Kimosabe red (5.5%abv).

Hard Cider - The $9.00 experiment. It's been a minute but Kris and myself finally squeezed in a brew session. We decided to go with a classic, Kimosabe. Had to sub ESB Pale malt for Maris Otter and we mashed at 157, a degree over our goal of 156. Hit an OG of 1.051. Kris pitched a fucking huge starter. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). NZ pale ale (?
