    What are you drinking right now?

    Did that get a little darker after aging? Seems the first glass you showed was a little lighter in color. Maybe it's just lighting.

    Brewing burnout?

    Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow, better yet, day after tomorrow. Maybe I'll wait another day or two on accepting your challenge, though. Wouldn't want to rush it. I've spent a lot of my life in hurry up and wait mode while administrators figured out how to make my job more...

    Brewing burnout?

    I bet I'm a better procrastinator than you are.

    Brewing burnout?

    I think I just got outta rhythm. We got started doing renovations in the house back in August last year, and I tried to work in a couple brews, but found myself leaving it in the fermenter far too long because most of the kitchen (where the missus helps me bottle) was in a shambles or torn...

    Looks pretty good, too. Webpage bookmarked! Thanks!

    I brewed today!

    At first I tried to figure out why you’d be circling boiling wort through the CFC while still boiling. Seems rather inefficient. Yep, I was overthinking it again. DUHHHHH. Same reason I put my chiller in the batch at 10 minutes! Probably a pretty smart idea to let the boiling wort sanitize the...

    What are you drinking right now?

    I almost posted a link to a particular brand of cider(actually a youtube spoof), but that would probably bring on a little more than a flag, LOL.

    What are you listening to now

    Who can ever forget the Dr. Demento Show? I miss the days of AOR radio when they'd play entire albums uninterrupted. Now they can barely get through a song without 8 sponsor spots. Quite annoying.

    Show me your gardening Progress

    Is that the science whereby you naturally select to eat the things that want to eat your garden? Well, the vertebrate things anyway.

    What are you doing with homebrew today?

    Might work, dunno. Smarter to just avoid overtightening, which I have no clue why I did it that one time. I'm not normally distracted easily, but on occasion it happens, and that's what I'm gonna write it off to.

    What are you doing with homebrew today?

    I really didn't think I'd tightened it that much, but it doesn't take much to make stainless steel gall and seize. Haven't done it again since. Tighten with the fingertips, nothing more. I kinda think maybe some hop goo got in it and 'glued' the threads. I try not to let the top go down in...

    What are you doing with homebrew today?

    I have the opposite problem with mine. If I tighten it too much, can't get the bugger open again without twisting the screen body. I put some FS grease on the threads last time, which helped. Not fond of using that stuff where it can make contact with the beer, but sometimes I don't find an...

    What are you drinking right now?

    And the verdict is? Looks nice, ABV/IBU ratio looks good. How was it? Don't think I've seen that label down south.

    What are you doing with homebrew today?

    That's gonna be a good drop. I did one a while back. Didn't last long.

    A neighbor gave me an old boat trailer designed for a 10' aluminum boat shortly after I moved in. Gotta love having good neighbors. I chopped about 3 feet off the tongue and built a wood body with PT lumber and decking, winding up with a 5 x 7. Already had a little dump box that I could pull...

    That Nut Brown is a tasty drop.

    What did you get delivered today

    What about a thin laminate insert, similar to what you already do? Dunno if it's available, but perhaps some really thin slate veneer? Something replaceable when the writing surface starts to fail? Might be too pricey, though. Dunno.
