PicturesWell, the bad weather, for the most part, stayed away from our fun last weekend as we party-guild brewed a Belgian Golden and a smaller beer. Here's the setup:

From left to right: Cody , Tim, Jacob, Tim. We had almost ten people helping us brew this beer but nobody thought to take a group picture until so many had left. HumDum, thanks for the flag, man!

I'm adding the home-inverted sugar to the Golden here. Man, that stuff is a pain to dissolve!

Tim and Sean add some hops. Sean's idea of having both kettles reach a boil at the same time made the session so much easier.

Tim learns I really do put people to work!

Hey, Tim! You were right! I should have used a blow-off!

This was a great day. We had a lot of fun and drank a lot of beer. Though I didn't really start until the yeast was pitched, I soon caught up!

Thanks to everyone who came and helped!

Ale in the wrong type of glass still tastes as sweet.

PicturesSome quick pictures of the growing brewery.


Here is the new mash tun in place with the other components on the brewery. Note the new insulation.


Here is the return manifold held by a brewery helper.

Because the return manifold sits below the water level during sparge, a check-valve was added to prevent backflow.
