Holy crap what a much needed brew day. Woke up this morning to water in the basement. Decided to call off work to clean the gutters and stuff. I also Decided to spend some quality time in the brewery...

Beer #1 is a double bean milk stout. 1.072 og which should put it around 6.4%. After the yeast has does it magic this beer will be aged on 3 grade A vanilla beans and 2oz cacao nibs. It will then be cold crashed and goshen coffee added.

Beer #2 is a Belgian saison with Australian ella hops. 1.055 og which should put this guy around 6.5%. This beer will get a small dry hop addition shortly before kegging.

Beer #3 is a galaxy smash. 1.057 og should put it around 5.2%. This is a single malt single hop beer with pale ale malt. A small bittering charge of galaxy went in the boil and it got 3oz of galaxy in the whirlpool. This beer will get a large dry hop addition shortly before kegging.

All in all it was a very productive day. On top of all the beers I also cleaned the gutters and vac packed 2&1/2 pounds of hops down to 1 oz packages and took inventory of all my hops. All in around 10 hours. Omg I need a beer! Cheers!
