That's two of us today Steve...I put up my Belgium Donker Mild today.

 

[Over The Cliff Brewing]

Transferring hopped cider.

 

[Zambi]

I still haven't done a hopped cider
@Over The Cliff Brewing : do you use just a bit for aroma?
Or do you make it real bitter?

This time I just dropped the apple juice on the yeast cake and leftover hops from the IPA I brewed a few weeks ago. Normally, I would dry hop at the end of fermentation to cut down on the bitterness.

Ah, OK
I have done that quite often.
My current simple cider has been done like that. I just can't say I can taste any hops. I'll just have to keep tasting

 

[Bulin's Milker Bucket Brews]

Ordered some really cool stuff…

Should have most of next week off, hopefully get some cleaning done, get everything assembled and get some pictures by the end of next week…

Cleaning out the kegs and the draft lines

Playing with 2 batches today. First, I cleaned and sanitized my Corny keg, then transferred an Amber Ale from fermenter. For this batch, I am opting for carbonation using a priming solution. I did use gas to make sure the lid sealed and to purge the headspace. The keg will condition at ambient room temperature for the next few weeks.
The second batch is my Partial Eclipse Wheat, which I sampled and dry hopped with a half ounce of Mandarina Bavaria. I will bottle that batch next week.
With open fermenters, now I am thinking about what to brew next, knowing that I am going to be away from home for another while, again.
