I dry hopped my cider with el dorado, lotus and zamba hops. My latest experiment.
What are you doing with homebrew today?

Transferring my wheat lager to a keg
Dry hopped cider cool!
Mashing in ginger Ninger got a little curious helper helping out 
Quick Matilda get them dough balls.
300g of honey malt in this I hope I've not overdone it.

Cleaning fermenters, kegs and sampling the latest Wheat Lager. Under carbed but I think it'll be a keeper.

She didn't want me to have a stir!
Remember kids, pay attention in geometry…or call a carpenter when you need to figure hip values.
Got the doors (sorta) sealed up on the chamber today. Huge difference in how much condensation drips off the ice jug (because the air dries out quickly if there’s no outside air being sucked in by the fan) , and how fast one jug of ice will cool down the chamber. I’m still gonna add another rack so I put a total of 6 half-gallon jugs on hooks in the back chamber, pretty much filling it up with ice. Yeasty beasties gonna have fun making my beer warm now. Gotta get more jugs soon so I can slow down my Chocolate Oatmeal Stout and see if I can knock off a couple points on the final gravity with a temperature bump at the end.
Everything so far says it should be a gentle temperature swing. Just chilling air is a lot different from chilling a large volume of liquid with living creatures in it. Hopefully it’ll get me to that next learning curve.

Well fabricated a hopper and a drive system today, plan on getting something to hook them to later this month.
Whatcha building Tim?
Milling station...need to actually get the new mill before I go much farther. Gonna be a BEAST...
No more than I brew, I can’t justify keeping large quantities of grains or adjuncts. My LHBS invites me in the back to mill whatever I’m buying or just does it for me if he isn’t too busy.
Definitely want to see photos of the finished product. I like fabricating things almost as much as I like making beer.
Ginger soup is in fermenter ready to go.
Your photo makes that motor look like it’s a couple thousand horsepower, lol. 1/3 hp? Nice reduction gear, too. That’s a monster.

Once I wake up, I'll move the brew from yesterday into the fermenter, pitch yeast and clean the kettle. Tempted to brew again today.....it's getting out of hand
