Hello all. It's been a bit since I've posted so I figured maybe I should update.
I'm considering doing away with posting all of the play-by-play of every recipe we do. Will any of you be unhappy if this happens? Didn't think so. I have all of the recipes and play-by-play in paper form. If you want one, just ask and I'll give it to you.
Plan on brewing on Saturday, July 28. We will be doing 3 batches, making for a long day. Plan on dawn to past dusk. We will be doing 3 single-hop IPAs. Taking into consideration the size of my garage and the number of people already coming, please talk to me before inviting any non-club people.
I'm still learning more every time I brew. You may think that the last few beers have been great. As good as they might taste, I still have not brewed a batch exactly the way it was supposed to be brewed. Each batch has a) not had a long enough mash, b) not had a long enough boil, or c) not been fermented at the correct temperature. a and b can be taken care of easily enough, but without temperature control (working on it) c will have be solved by using a certain strain of yeast based on the temperature in whatever room of my house I'm fermenting in.
I'm getting extremely low on bottles. Please return as many as possible, as soon as possible. Drink faster, people.
Since we are brewing 2 batches a month, we have actually reached the end of our fiscal year. I assume you are all planning on being a part of beer club for another year. Please get me your $120 as soon as you can.
Please let me know if you will be here for the Knoll Street 2nd Anniversary party in August.
