No, you must not bottle the Death Sour yet...

With a name like that you must wait until November 1st.!

Day of the Dead 2015
begins Sunday, November 1
(in 72 days)
ends Monday, November 2

Papa, but this name reminds me of Star Wars so he has to wait until December 18 to drink it.

The Death Sour beer name is not really all that thought through. My wife is a forensic death investigator and she only like sours.
I'll have to dig up my notes, but probably haven't sampled or taken a gravity reading in 6 months, just made sure the air lock stayed full. I know it was 1.008 last time and I'm pretty sure it's fermented out.
Plan on adding 2 grams of champagne yeast to the bottling bucket along with the priming sugar to make sure it carbs in the bottle.

Bottling 5 gallons of an ESB from the keg. Giving it all away.

Brewing up my Oktoberfest Ale. First time using a corona style grain mill. Smells great up in here!

Ok, just finished up the day with a shower Time to sit and enjoy an Octoberfest (for once I planned way ahead).

Todays total:

96 bottles of ESB bottled from the keg. One case for my wife to give away at work, one for my son and one for me to give away. Giving 12 to my sons girlfriend for her to give to coworkers and I'm dropping the others off here and there.

Kegged 5 gallons Le Petite Saison. SG 1.032, FG 0.999 = 4.3%. Can't wait to try this in a week.

Bottled 46 bottles of Death Sour 665. Named after my wife's job, her like of sours and the White Labs yeast used. Batched primed with 120g table sugar and 2g champagne yeast.

Man.........it's been a long day.

Damn, that's a day and a half, Jeff!

Oh, and 96 bottles of EBS on the wall.....

I just bottled up the BD Twisted Monk for my wife. It's one of the only beers that she likes aside from sours and the occasional hef - lucky for me it's easy and quick to brew up using HME when I can find them cheap. She doesn't drink it often so a 3G batch will last a good 4-6 months.

Hey Jeff, I see you've got one of those fancy schmancy beer guns!!

Was gonna brew 10 gallons of cream ale, and keg 10 gallons of pale ale. but everything went to $&%! thermometer went haywire, and I had a co2 leak, so no way to purge kegs

Brewed 10g of Oatmeal Stout last weekend and 10g of Kolsch this weekend!

What is going on. Probably do a Gose and a APA in the next week.

That bites. I would never have really thought of it on my own but I ended up with a second 5lb CO2 tank when I bought my kegerator. Not that it helps you any - not trying to rub it in, sorry.

I really hate when brew day plans get shot.

I am gonna buy another 5 lber

Brewed 5 gallons of an Edmund Fitzgerald Porter clone, still to be named.

Love me some EF... Did you post the recipe somewhere that I missed by chance Rick?

The Simply Simarello mash is on. Just about to start heating up the sparge water.
