Little charred oak mini for the Mulberara ...
*** UPDATE THE RECORD SUCH THAT I FORGOT TO RACK ONTO BIOFINE CLEAR FOR BOTH THE MILD AND THE MULBERARA ***
Glad I Found This Before It Exploded!
Aged saison yeasties ...
All I have in bulk is 14# British Pale and maybe 2-4# M.O. that I rediscovered ...
I have 1# ea of Optic and Pearle and RedX, though - maybe I'll waffle up a recipe later on and brew it tomorrow for a room-temp ferm ...
These aren't as old, but are calling me =)
Zorg for tonight's late-night session ...
Nice beer ...
Nice beer ...

you didnt brew it yet did you?
the O2 is still absolutely necessary, its only during the very end of anaerobic reproduction do you get the barnyard smells, and you shouldnt get a single one of those with Trois ever so it wasnt really necessary
and doesnt that figure, I tell you that you are pitching starters way too big, except this time where you actually need to pitch really big
the Brett vials from white labs only contain 1/3rd of the pitch rates of other vials, so they need an extra day to prop up unless you are oxygenating the shit out of them, which you didnt do at all
wouldnt surprise me if it lags out hard

i haven't brewed it yet, lol ...
I'll do something unusual and bubble pure into the starter twice today ...
WL has since relabeled this as sacc, so perhaps the counts are normalized too, now? ...
not sure on that ...
is the recipe okay? - made it after a lot of beer, late at night ...

RedX isn't anything too whacky, it's just a base malt that happens to have a nice color ... can be used 100% ... which is why I'm using up the single pound that I have of it, just to get rid of it ...
I've seen reputable folks say that a 100% RedX around 1.050 makes a nice tasting/looking IPA ... and one of these days I'll try that ...
I just put 1200mL Fast Pitch on the stir-plate, and the Trois is sitting on the counter warming up a little ...
It's clear that despite their labeling it as "Brux-Like" on the package, the amount of yeast in the tube is still a low-count serving ...
We'll see how my work goes today, and I'll either brew tonight, or if I can make it work out, maybe I'll wait until tomorrow for brew day for the yeasties ...
I was curious how they would gift wrap a pressure canner, LOL ...
It's very regal looking, haha ...

Yeah ... nice workaround, though ... I need to go over there and see those folks ...
Their brewmaestro is an ex-homebrewer, so I'm hoping maybe they'll put a replaced head/stave aside for me next time they're doing some coopering ...

The guide that I've been reading on building the electric brewery says to use the step drill to make a hole just big enough to fit the shank of a punch through and then to use the punch to make the final hole. The punch does a better, more accurate job of it. They recommend using GreenLee Chassis or Radio punches like this:
