We decided to try another crack at an overnight mash schedule. Well, everything would have been great, however my chest freezer died the very minute as I lowered in the fermenters. Temperatures for making lagers are in the 50’s and not the 80’s. $70 later and a Saturday of sweat and frustration, I had to dump the batch. I kegged it and thought that even with these high temps it would still would mellow out after a few weeks, but not the case. It tasted awful. Here are some images.

Thanks for being so patient. I really appreciate that you have not hit me with emails yelling for content. I have been working diligently on this site for almost a month now and it seems that it is similar to the old site. Well, I can say that there are a bunch of new things happening around here and I hope you enjoy some of the new things. For starters, I have been able to employ WordPress as the CMS system. I have allowed for commenting to be apart of the site again. I really miss hearing from all of you. Secondly, every now and then I can switch the background images on you. Think of it being like a weekly gallery trip into the creativity of my site. Hope it stands out. I have employed a more user friendly Photography section. I am now using thumbnails so you can choose what images you want to view. Like I said, I hope this go noticed. I will promise to provide more things to read and look at. Yes, even the beer section will have updates.

Welcome back. So I call Adelph!a to get an answer as to why the F@#K I am paying $42.95 for High Speed and my neighbor is paying less than $20. They tell me that 6 months ago they rolled Digital HB0 service into their High Speed access and came up with a package for almost half the price. I asked kindly, “Why was I not notified?” She said, “Our customers are notified throug a telemarketing service.” Of course I have nothing to do with that stuff, so I was never notified. I tell her, “wouldn’t it make more sense to notifly your customers that if there is indeed a price DECREASE in an existing package, why not print that on a statement as EVERY FU$KING PERSON GETS A STATEMENT!” She basically told me to ‘pound salt.’ I told her that it was nice to speak to someone that was working for a company that has a CEO that was stealing and put them into chapter 11. “Good luck to you and your family.” I told her.
