Re: What are you drinking?
I had a hard cider yesterday, first alkee haul in several months. Funny how it didn't taste as good as I expected, atleast it was commercial swill, not my good stuff that's conditioning. I like to let my ciders condition for atleast a year.

Re: Z
Damn cagers never watch out for folks on the road, bikes or moto bikes, I've had enough close calls to last a lifetime. I also can't lift much but I knew my issues were coming and had time to brew up a few batches. I was also told to not drink while on my meds and to wait to be healed. I've refused ...

Re: Pictures
Pic of the Moto-bike sitting, just getting dusty.
I've also started another yet hobby.... way too many. Here's a pic albeit a long ways from being great, astrophotography.
Which of course is just another hobby my carpel tunnel has put pretty much on hold.- Thu Aug 01, 2024 5:14 pm

Re: On the (brewing) road again
That makes sense. It taste good but wow, bitter strong. This will not be an easy drinker, rather drink a glass fast and hit da floor..... LOL I much prefer a brew under/around 5%. It can sit a bit, I now have 2-5 gallon and 4 2.5 gallon kegs at the ready to enjoy and 2 more batches crushed, ready fo...

Re: On the (brewing) road again
OG was higher than expected and the yeast (S-04) attenuated more than expected. I don't really understand why it was off sooo much. This was a kit I ordered, expected all grain and they shipped an extract kit so I just went with it. I added nothing extra, only used what came in the kit. Mostly I jus...

On the (brewing) road again
Trying to catch up on my (lack of) brewing the past year or so. The past couple months I've brewed/kegged 10 gallons of Honey Hard Cider at 6% (using apples from our trees), a strong/bitter IPA that should have been ~6.5 but came out at 9.7%, a Honey Kolsch at 5% (first time doing one of these), and...

Re: Honey Cider
Just checked FG... I guess it has been a while since I've done cider. It comes in at 10.25%. That is a ... little higher than I wanted. I have a feeling I should have checked the grav BEFORE I dumped in that much sugar. The oldish yeast I used dropped it down to .998.... I checked the hydrometer, it...

Re: The No Post Post
I am too old now and happy with the easy way I brew, and already have bought new stuff over the years that sometime don't use much now. I can relate totally to that comment! I'm quite happy with what I wound up with (grain father), works great start to finish. But.... as I slowly grew, so did my br...

Honey Cider
I've not brewed in a good 8-9 months. After 3-4 years of little/no apples on our trees, this year I was able to pick enough to make 13 gallons of cider. Yesterday I filled 2 carboys with 5 gallons each and discovered, although I had a feeling, the packets of cider yeast are pretty much dead. One car...
