That means the 001 is 75% attenuated and the 007 is 70% and White Labs shows 75-80% for 001 and 70-80% for 007. I usually get crappy attenuation when using 007 so these numbers aren't bad. The rest of the yeast should clean up while it's dry hopping and yes, I know I'm impatient but is that bad if I admit it?

I suspect that's a typo and you meant 1.013 and 1.017, not 1.103 and 1.107.

You know me...I'm in the camp of "when it's done, it's done". My Levitation would have been kegged by day 8 or 9 if I would have had the time. As it stands, it was 13 days.

Yeah, thanks for that. My bad....my very bad!

Not bad, just dyslexic as well as funny.

I wish I could claim dyslexia but it's just poor typing and proof reading. I suck at many things and am a master of things to suck at.

So I dry hopped these tonite and here's what I did using some stuff I had laying around whilst trying to keep things close to the recipe.
On the 001 beer I used .5 oz of Mosaic, .5 of Palisade, 1 oz of Galaxy and 1 oz of El Dorado.
On the 007 beer I used 1.5 oz Chinook, 1.3 of Crystal (all that was left of what I had) and .75 of Mosaic.
I'm not the biggest Mosaic fan though it does pair well with some other hops.
The more I look at this recipe, the more its really just a baby IPA.

You'd hate my latest APA then. It's 100% Mosaic and bursting with Mosaic flavor.

I don't know how long it's been since I've used Mosaic. Once Netscape hired pretty much all of the dev team, it kind of stagnated.

Sorry, wrong Mosaic.

I'm not sure what Mosaic was but I remember Navigator!

And I'm back from the days of Telnet and MUDs and MOOs and MUSHes and Gopher. And command line FTP.

Mosiac, that was shiny fancy s*$%!

Can you say: "baud rate"?

LOL!

I believe it was 1200/2400 at that time.

Maybe I need to brew some 8bit IPA.

In the early days, they actually called it Netscape Mosaic.

GET OFF MY LAWN!

Technically, when it got that high, it was bits per second (which is close to baud, but not quite the same).

I STILL do command line ftp. Actually, I'm now more likely to use scp.

I used gopher, archie and veronica.

Maybe we should start a separate thread for the internet reminiscing.
