Pic of Lambic brew day


Brewmaster adding grain.

The grains mixing with the mash water.

The title dog.  He demanded the fashion to cover his zipper.

"I need sunglasses"

Brewing a lambic.  Drink a lambic.  This bottle is imported from NE.


































We started the mash at 122 F for 20 mins.  Used an infusion to raise the mash T to 148 F.  Sadly the mash only got to 138 F.  I am sure the cloud city techs fixed my promash.  Did two decoctions to bring the T to 148 F. Left it there for 60 mins.  Mid way through, I did one more decoct to keep the heat up.  Infused to bring the mash up to 165 for mash out.




Recirculating to filtering the wort.  Thanks to Don for the pump loan.  


Sparging and collecting the wort.

Ah chessy hops

The three sources of yeasts and beasts.

The assistance brewers share the Brewmistress' trippel. 
Title dog makes sure to keep an eye on the transfer.  He needed to the flow stopped three time.
