Damn, not sure what I was waiting for. So much good home brew in one place.

Amazing group! Holy ****!
I have a few solid things that I intend to incorporate into my brewing process and a few things I want to explore.
A few of them made it clear they were happy to have me and were aware of how I've done in the brew comps. Nothing stupid or over the top. There are better brewers in the group than me, for sure. It was awesome.
Took a few hours before I started loosening up and before the group got more casual. Had some amazing conversations with bad *** home brewers.
As I was leaving I ran into the club president and he asked what I thought. I just said that it was amazing and I should have joined several years ago. His response was "Yes, you should have." I confirmed I'd be back next month and went on my merry way.
Wow. I don't know what I was hesitant about.
Also, for anyone into beer, even if you're not into brewing, there is better beer at a Lauter Day Brewers meeting than you can get commercially in the state of Utah, period.

I do not add diastase ME, or what you would call dry malt. Depending on tha season I prefer 17 lbs 2-row malt 1 lb oats 1 chocolate malt 1 lb barley. Obviously xtra ingredients. Malt use ta break down polyscharides but now not doin what I want.
Bump for "learn to homebrew day"
I recently joined a homebrew club, the Lauter Day Brewers. This month they are having an open meeting at Kiitos Brewing on Nov. 12th. at 4:30pm If any of you are a homebrewer or interested in homebrewing you should consider checking it out.
Many people bring some of their homebrew to share and some bring commercial beers to share. So if you do come consider bringing something, although it isn't necessary, and bring a small taster glass and a lawn chair.
This months meeting will be about making tinctures and adding flavors to your beer consistently.
Kiitos is a very new local brewery and they have an interesting high efficiency mashing system that's worth checking out. The club meeting takes place in their brewhouse.

Tomorrow I'm kegging two batches of YES.
Batch A will have a high sulfate to chloride ratio, batch B with have a high chloride to sulfate ratio. Other than the water chemistry both batches are identical. Will present it to the homebrew club at our next meeting to see if people have a strong preference for one over the other, and to see if people can pick out what is different. I haven't tasted either one yet so I'm not sure if it's going to be a big difference or a small difference.

I'd drink it but I'll leave the brewing of it to the "pros"
Brew System 3.0 is coming soon!
I figured my last system would be it. No need to go any further.
Well, I like building breweries as much as I like brewing, so I don't think it ever ends.
Big changes:
Going to 15 gallon batches from 10 gallon.
Going to a RIMS (Recirculating Infusion Mash System) based system vs a HERMS (Heat Exchange Recirculating Mash System).
Going to a 2 vessel system vs a 3 vessel system
Going full automation with automatic electronically controlled valves and pumps.
Incorporating LODO (Low Oxygen) brewing practices. <-- highly controversial subject in the brew nerd community at the moment
Going to stainless steel Unitank conical fermenters with integrated heating and chilling capability, the ability to ferment under pressure, and the ability to do a closed pressure transfer of carbonated beer into kegs.
Ultimately there is nothing a pro brewery does that I won't be able to do with this system.
I have a buyer for my old system, so that'll get me half the way there financially to paying for the new system. Since I built my old system, even selling it at a really good price and about half what this person was going to spend for an inferior commercially available system, I'll be selling it for more than I paid for it after several years of use.
