I just put in an order in at www.morebeer.com for an additional 6 gallon fermentation unit as well as 3 one gallon glass units that will serve as experimentation vessels. We have already been tossing around ideas for new brews and some that may be a little off the wall. A nice dark chocolate stout with a hint of orange peel or cayenne (or both) sounds pretty intriguing. We will now be able to produce small batches of brew with very experimental components without putting 5 gallons (50 beers or so) in jeopardy. I've made that mistake once... never again.
Let us know what kind of flavors intrigue you and maybe we can work on a brew that suits your taste buds.

Hey brew buddy,
ReplyDeleteI found something you may be interested in. This could help you conserve water:
"I use a copper coil wort chiller -one end is hooked up (via long vinyl hose) to a small pump pond (picked up at Lowes for about twenty bucks) the other has a vinyl tubing that goes into the bucket -the bucket is filled with ice, the pump is at the bottom, and just enough water to get the flow started (the hot water from the chillers' outlet will melt the ice in fairly short order). It works pretty fast. If you really wanted to give it a kick, you could add some salt to the water (which would lower the effective temp. of the water in the bucket). Anyway, it beats using the sink and wasting the gallons of water."
