Cedar Rapids Brewing Society

I'll be brewing a hefe on Saturday. And by "brewing", I mean going over to Karl's place, and having him assist me while using all of his equipment.

Actually, this works out well. I get assistance on my first all-grain batch, and Karl gets to test-run his new equipment without worrying about destroying his own batch of beer. Plus, he gets to keep some of the beer.

Cool! Been a while since I've seen a beer outta you Jim.

Holy smokes, he's alive!

So, in this arrangement, who's the Bitch?

OMG! I'm actually brewing again! Fly sparge is progressing right now.

Why you are, Tony.  You're always our honorary Bitch.

Since this was the inaugural run for the new brewing equipment, I figured I'd post a few pictures.

All in all it was a great success. Everything went pretty well except cleaning the mash tun still makes a mess and I cannot seem to avoid making a mess of myself. Also, I did have a some trouble getting the pump to prime. I still need to do some work to characterize temperature and volume loss rates for the strike and sparge water transfers. But, the counter-flow chiller worked great.

Karl has an account on here?

Yeah, look, he's posted 5 whole times in 4+ years - What a gabby puss!

So, is the cat's name - Puss-n-Beer??
