so its getting to that time of the year where my brewing gets ramped up. Winter is almost over, its not 2 degrees out and I am almost out of beer.

I’m not so worried about the cold,, but the water thing sucks. I brew in my garage and the water is 40 feet away over the snow bank. I got a RV hose to run, but its really a pain trying to run a frozen hose 40 feet. But now that its warmer its not so bad. Do have to allow for longer time though as it really does take longer to get thing heated and boiling.

so anyway, the production is gonna go up. I started this past weeked with my Duck Creek pale, and will continue for the next couple weekends, most likely 1 a weekend. I plan on kegging a brown and a couple of light brews for the summer, and bottle a stout and the Pale ale. My buddies are starting to drink more and more of my stuff so i gotta keep more of the lighter stuff around.

This should keep me in stock till summer when i can then start crankin the wheats. Wheats are great because in the summer there is always some kind of fruit on sale, and you can just dump a wert on them and be good to go.

In between these is when I can work on the heavy stuff that needs to condition for months. The barleywines, the high gravity christmas beers.

There I pretty much just mapped out my brew schedule till late summer. Then we start the winter beers. My stouts, and porters.
