As the sun set on another day of brewing in Oakland, CA, Joe and I had bottled 50 bottles of gold that we are calling our Mystery Recipe Pale Ale. With our first attempt at all grain brewing appearing to have been a non-failure, our heads have inflated just a bit more . All we can do now is wait two weeks for the yeast to do one last bit of work and carbonate each bottle.
According to our hydrometer readings, our pre-fermented wort had a OG of 1.036 and the beer we bottled yesterday a FG of 1.010. What does this mean? It means we have an alcohol content of roughly 3.2%, making it legal for sale in Utah! Well, except for our utter lack of any sort of license.
Awesome pic. The sunset yesterday was pretty sweet.
You guys need a place to do photo hosting. I’m thinking that you can open a free flickr account and then we can install the falbum plugin. Then you can link to your photos from posts and have a gallery embedded in your site. See mine here.
