Got a brew kit for my b-day 2 years ago, wasn't thrilled and didn't brew, Then for x-mas I got an all grain brew class. That Peaked my interest, now I have a variety of malts and hops on hand, built a 3 tap kegerator. I make and brew my own recipes exclusively based on what color, hops, and ABV I feel like at the moment, which usually goes with the seasons, I like to make not just beer but great beer and different beers.

Same basic as my Centennial Springer but with Columbus instead of Chinook and tweaked my brew kettle so I don't have to put my hops in a hop bag, with the theory that the hops not all compressed in a bag will boil more freely/loosely and the hop oil/aroma will get washed off the hops better leaving more aroma.

Fermenting @ 62 in my kegerator for 10 days.Brew day was a pain, nothing went right , mill kept jamming and spilling malt. I finally opened up to .039 and eyeballed more malt to make up for spillage. We'll see.

mashed for 60 min @ 156 degrees. set mill @ .038. After 3 batch's of mediocre to poor effeciency when prior batch's I was getting better effeciency I am going back to fly sparging. that's how I started, then I thought I would start batch sparging to save time, and I think I'm not flushing all the sugars down like I was during fly sparging. (Wort would get real light/clear at the end of fly sparging at the end of my last batch sparge on the porter the wort was still coming out dark) started ...

barley crusher set at .049 to mill grains should have checked settings, way to loose resulted in about 69% effeciency. Guess this will be a real easy drinker. In the end it came out at 4.7% abv Day 1 check fermentation temp 73.Day 2 / 70.Day 3 / 66.Day 4 / 66.Day 5 / 66Day 6 racked to secondary/kegLeft in keg @ 66 for 4 days then chilled to 38 Overnight then force carbonated.
