Re: Tony Montaña
I'd really like to taste some of your beers. Maybe next time I'm up in Montana.
Today I tried/hit a couple of the challenges you texted me. The first vid may have two of them...and then I thought it was possible that I misinterpreted your move description, so the second video has a different interpretation of what you may have requested. Either way, they were fun challenges that I wouldn't have thought up myself:

Re: Tony Montaña
I brought a fictional beer into existence yesterday
There's a beer in Stephen King's Dark Tower Series that the Gunslinger drinks called graff. He describes it as a malty apple cider. So I decided to make it. I brewed up a gallon of wort with crystal malt, smoked malt, and malted wheat, added an ounce of northern brewer hops at the beginning of a 60 minute boil, let it cool to about 70 degrees F, and put it on top of 4 gallons of preservative-free non-pasteurized apple cider in a fermenter (additive free and non-pasteurized so that the yeast isn't inhibited). Pitched some American Ale Yeast, and it's vigorously fermenting away right now.

4-5 oz ghirardelli unsweetened bakers chocolate (5 min boil)
20 super chiles - seeded (5 min boil)

going to add 16 oz of bourbon with 2 oz of medium toasted oak chips after primary fermentation is done

Re: Tony Montaña
I understand brother. that's a lot of Chiles. I hope it doesn't over power the beer. I used jalapnos in a smoked hefe once and it was a very strong flavor i waited a few months for it to mellow. I added mine in the secondary i wonder how boiling will change it.

Re: Tony Montaña
It should be very subtle since they were only in the boil for the last 5 minutes, as opposed to soaking them in your wort for 2 whole weeks during secondary fermentation.
A jalapeno smoked hefe sounds awesome. What were your ratios? something like 40% smoked malt, 10% pils malt, 50% wheat malt?

Re: Tony Montaña
I did 50 50 smoke and wheat, i took 1 gallon and put it in a growler with half a jalapeno. the beer was much better without the pepper but it was a fun experiment. I need to get back into brewing i haven't done it since April. Maybe this Sunday.

brewing is where it's at.
Halloween is coming up. We're doing a couples costume. My girlfriend is going to be a positive pregnancy test, and I'm going to be a hanger with a bloody fetus head on the top of it

Got dumped. We still live together and may finish the lease out. It sucks. But on the up-side, i can do lots of winter camping/hiking/snowshoeing now.

Re: Tony Montaña
Things have been rough. I watched my mother take her last breath while waiting for the ambulance to come last night
This morning while I was sleeping, my car was hit by a drunk driver and totaled.
Things have got to get better, right?

Re: Tony Montaña
Well, the funeral was on monday. The only black shoes I have are my lavers so I wore those.
Had a session with Jeremiah 2 nights ago. Was slow to warm up but had some long strings. hit some new tricks. the only one I can remember is clip far non-symple swirl. some other things with bigger tricks were flip spanishfly first try, blurrier>spin clip which i didn't think I'd be able to do. tomahawk>step duck clip>string. tried scorps>fog a few times and couldn't hit it so I tried scorps>backside fog for shits and giggles and pretty much went completely sideways in mid-air lol! Also kept trying backside ripped warrior because I've never seen anyone do that intentionally. It's a lot harder than it seems.
Had a solo session yesterday morning to get some cardio and core exercise. Drilled spins and gyros for the core strengthening and now it hurts the abs to sneeze and I can feel every movement in my back muscles. not pain, just the good kind of soreness.
Have 3 batches of brew ready to bottle totalling 15 gallons/145 bottles
