Over the last few days...

Dropping in to catch everybody up. I'm still working on cleaning out the brew basement. Of course that "little" oven problem I mentioned is getting more attention than the brewing related projects. Also looking to brew soon. It'll probably be with dry yeast. The theme will be cheap ingredients that I already have in stock. Shortly after that beer is ready to drink I'll be demonstrating extract brewing on Teach a Friend to Brew day.

Of course Fermentation Friday is afoot tomorrow over at Final Gravity. I'm going to write about what I hope to brew with indigenous ingredients, rather than what I've actually brewed which is nothing.

I've witnessed lots of pumpkin beer and Oktoberfest beer at the taps lately. T.J.'s in Paoli PA is having a big Oktoberfest celebration. They even sell liters! How cool is that? I just might stop in this weekend. Of course there's a ton of things going on this month. I rely on Bryan at The Brew Lounge to keep me up to date on Southeastern PA events and beyond.

The Joe's Ancient Orange Cinnamon Clove Mead we're making is just about ready to be tasted. That ought to be interesting. One week to go.

That's all for now. Hope things are going well out there in homebrew ...er beer land.
