How Deep is your Love (um... pipeline)

Post by mashani »

I thought there was a topic like this, but I can't find it. But I was just going through and consolidating my full bottles and partially full boxes, trying to create some empty boxes so I can bottle my next batch.

So I determined that my current "drinking" pipeline stands at about 25 gallons. Some beers in it are as old as 30 months (and are really good at that age, quads, stronger Brett beers and such). Some as young as 3 weeks. And I've got 5 more gallons in the "conditioning" pipeline.

So about 30 gallons total here for me.

Just curious how deep others pipelines are?

OK, you just made me go look. I have 10 beers on tap, along with 60+ bottles of Sours. So somewhere in the 30+ gallon range too.
I may or may not have a problem. Brewing problem, not a drinking problem that is.

Assuming we are talking homebrew only.....I have 9 bottles. Both taps are empty. All three kegs are empty.

As of this writing, 1 fermenter is now full.

By my math, I have approx 14+ gallons of homebrew (3 in the fermenter, everything else in bottles... 162, I think).
On the commercial side, I have about 15 gallons of beers cellared or fridged, in about 100ish bottles. Most of those are sour and/or funky beer and stouts, with some other styles mixed in.

So, I pretty much match Inky's combined 30 gallons.

I'm about halfway through a keg of 100 Years War IPA, and I've got a six-pack of Oat Soda Oatmeal stout, and a little over two six-packs of Tennessee Cream Ale. So.... Not a lot in the pipeline at the moment, although I'll be kegging the Ottertoberfest and the Rye-Guy IPA this week, and brewing a fiver of Amber's Amber Ale, too. So pretty soon I'll have another ten gallons of drinkable beer in the pipeline.

Just under 30 gallons drinkable, 5 gallons ready in a little over a week, 10 gallons fermenting, and 5 gallons ready to brew in early September.

What do I win? :lol:

Edit - oops, I was wrong, doing it from memory during the Beer Brewery trip. Forgot about 5 gallons that IS ready.

34.25 gallons drinkable, 4.66 gallons ready in a little over a week, 10 gallons fermenting, and 5 gallons ready to brew in early September.

Not much pipeline here; just 2 little 2-1/2 gallon kegs on the carbonation, in the kegerator. If I manage to accumulate a bit more, I will typically bottle up a few bombers & give them away.

Not so heavy here either. Maybe a case of homebrew ready to drink, 10 gallons conditioning, 5 gallons fermenting.
But I remember when I thought that was a world of beer.

Never mind, there it is.
