We just completed our first brew of the season yesterday, and you can read about it here. However, in this post, I'd like to talk about what could have gone wrong. Mind you, the brew was successful, we made good wort (now the yeast has to make beer), but things weren't as good as they could/should have been. Here I will discuss my thoughts.

Goodbye Winter!
Well, with the winter thaw upon us and temperatures rising, it's time to say goodbye to winter and hello to spring and, with it, brewing season 2015!
Since it went over well with folk, we're going to get started this coming Sunday with an all-grain recreation of our last brown ale. We still haven't had a chance to rebuild our HERM system, so we're going to do BIAB (brew in a bag). This adds some time, but not as much as a traditional all grain setup, as we won't have to worry about lautering and sparging and re-lautering, etc, etc.
Anyways, that's all for now. I just thought I'd share the good news.
