Getting Ready to Brew…
Baking crookneck squash (aka “Neck Pumpkin”) for the Pumpkin Ale recipe in Zymurgy this month. I skinned it first and cubed it, and sprinkled brown sugar on it.
House smells awesome.
Just realized it has an OG of 1.071, so I also whipped up a 2-liter starter.
Brewing this one on Monday after I keg my Wheats. I’m making a spice tea with the spices from the Pumpkin Ale Recipe to make a Pumpkin Spice Wheat (No actual pumpkin, just spices). Also, using extract to make a Cranberry Wheat (What else to drink on Thanksgiving??? 
) and a Blackberry Wheat.
I have room for 6 kegs in my fridge, and after I brew on Monday, then an Oatmeal Espresso Stout on Saturday, I’ll have filled 12 of my cornies. Good thing the garage is a constant 46 degrees!!
In December, I’ll brew a 5 gallon batch of 1.035 beer, and split it up into 8 or 9 2-liter batches to stick in separate freezer bags for starters in 2009.
Who doesn’t love beer?
