Here is the finished yield! This is a Listermann's Imperial Stout. It smells pretty boozy, so hopefully it is, in fact, imperial. On deck is this Northern Brewer Honey Weiss Kit. Gonna start that this weekend. Woohoo! Scroll down to see the bottling process for the stout...
Here is the cleaning station. Had to ensure all bottles were sanitized and ready to go.
This was quite the feat; 50 some odd bottles upside down drying at once. The last time I tried this I had em all fall over a couple times. Got lucky with no casualties this time around. Booyah!
Siphoning the stout from secondary to bottling bucket. And of course, and in keeping with the tradition in homebrewing.... Having my own IPA while I brew!
Black & Decker portable workbench proves perfect for the racking procedure. Almost done here. Just tilted the carboy a bit to get the last of the brew.
Once in the bottling bucket, I used the bottling wand to transfer to each bottle. The yield this time was 46 12 oz and 3 22 oz bottles. I didn't show this process on my last brew post, so I figured share for anyone out there looking for pointers. I'm a pretty relaxed brewer. I will eventually graduate up to all grain, but I'm really enjoying the hell out of extract brewing. It's very gratifying and as I've said before.... I owe it to homebrewing to brew a few extract brews before trying to make my own recipe!
Next up... Boiling the Honey Weiss!
Cheers everybody!
