Well, get 2 more fermenters and brew weekly. 3 weeks in the fermenter 4 weeks in the bottle. That way after the initial 7 week wait you'll have ale coming ready every week. Eliminates the wait. :idea:

I dont mind the fermenting as much as in my mind it isnt beer yet. Bottle carb and conditioning I hate since I know it IS beer, which is why I am so happy I keg my standard house brews.

I thought this was going to be a question........
- my answer would be: To hear someone order a BMC and truely believe they are getting a tasty beer.

Not to be a beer snob, but yes, as I have been accused of recently at a Browns game, buddy asked me if I wanted a LaBatts, told him no thanks. His reply laughingly though, was now that you brew your own beer your a snob? To which I replied, no just didn't pay $45.00 for a ticket to the football game to stand in line for the bathroom!!!
