I should have mine ready in 3 months or so if all goes well!

I brewed mine on Feb 10th when the northeast got hit by a big blizzard. I took the top couple of inches off of 10" of snow, used about 35 gallons of snow.<br /><br />http://www.simplybeer.com/blog/2010/02/23/what-to-do-in-a-blizzard-make-snow-beer/<br /><br />Check it out.

My Smoked Stout should be drinkable by then (so smokey and boozy right now) and I have more of the Coconut Milk Stout than I'll be able to drink by then. We'll have to have a little tasting. We can compare our Surly Wort too if you have it bottled. We took fairly different approaches with it.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07881030287617201616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1016768543865919158.post-57298664139217807002010-02-25T15:42:46.185-06:002010-02-25T15:42:46.185-06:00Nice Dan.

Your guess is as good as mine how it'll turn out, but I'll be bottling it at some point in a few months and it should be drinkable by spring so hit me up and we'll have a pint!Dank brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08779478546239203006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1016768543865919158.post-33820621816598555582010-02-25T15:00:03.962-06:002010-02-25T15:00:03.962-06:00Nice little convo here about using snow in beer. ...Nice little convo here about using snow in beer. I also linked your blog and how you did it. <br /><br />http://beeradvocate.com/forum/read/2607746#2609636<br /><br />The last poster mentioned something about how crazy soft the mouthfeel was in his beer. I might have to try this next year after seeing how yours turns out.<br /><br />Cheers!Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07881030287617201616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1016768543865919158.post-70048884004950068692010-02-24T16:33:47.165-06:002010-02-24T16:33:47.165-06:00Hey Jason,

I ended up letting it sit upstairs at around 62 degrees to get it going. 8 hours later and it wasn't bubbling at all. 16 hours after pitching it was bubbling pretty good so I'm thinking it should be okay. Last night I moved it downstairs at around 54 degrees. Hopefully it's still going strong, I might have moved it downstairs too quick. Not sure. I've yet to do a starter...that'd mean I'd have to plan 2 days ahead.Dank brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08779478546239203006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1016768543865919158.post-73135540418681728882010-02-24T11:59:50.602-06:002010-02-24T11:59:50.602-06:00Hope it turns out well - have yet to make a lager ...Hope it turns out well - have yet to make a lager or pilsner.<br /><br />I'm curious about the smack pack - most people recommend a starter for lagers. Did you get a slow fermentation start time?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14710742394174418109noreply@blogger.com
