Cracked open another bottle of my Viking Piss Porter (my first batch
of homebrew) today. It's been in the bottle for 3 weeks now . . .

Mmmmmm. Pretty darn good.

Think I'll empty a few bottles while getting the next batch into the
fermenter. :>

Glad to hear it! I'm just into the secondary fermenter with my first batch,
a simple canadian ale. I'll be bottling next weekend.

Ahhh, but now I'm hooked. I need to stock up on empty bottles and get
some more batches going, or I'll be running out of homebrew before the
next batch is ready. Yikes. =:o

Looks like I have a weekend project every weekend, for the forseeable
future. :>

They'll find a way to tax it, if word gets out.

Porter is a good first choice IMHO.

Bars are a good source of free glass.

Reading this newsgroup always makes me thirsty, imagine that.

I'm always heartened by another successful post. I just started a batch
of Amber Ale from a kit that's been sitting in my basement for months.
God knows how it will come out, but it can't be that bad. I hope.

Forget more bottles...

Talk to your local home brew supplier about setting up a keg system. You can
spend a little or a lot, but you never have to worry about cleaning bottles
or such again... I have an old fridge which can hold 3-5 Cornelius kegs (Old
soda syrup canisters) and two taps mounted through the wall... Freezer
section keeps my glasses cold. I am in the process of mounting a beer engine
on the wall for a third tap... British style ale pump, with a sparkler
head... Trust me, any investment in a keg system will be repaid in the
increased fun and lower work of future brewing...
