2010-03-25 – I had missed a couple of brew days, for the 90 Shilling Clone and the Octoberfest, and I also realized that I should move the Lambics to July, since that’s when the fruit I need will be in season. I actually added 2 more brews, the Hefeweizen and the Rye beer. I’m planning on buying 50# of 2 Row in April, so I may have to change some of the brews in order to use it all, or add more brew days.

2010-08-07 - The Lambic recipe I went with was looking for up to 6 months in primary, and 6 months in secondary. I simply don’t have enough carboys to brew 2 of these at once, so I passed on the second one. Although as soon as I’m done with the one I have now, I’m going to start up a second one.
