Put together a little project for a friend who had some very specific requirements for a stop watch.
1) 2 distinct timers
2) Each time should be controlled by a button.
3) Pressing a button would start/reset the timer and display the last recorded interval.
Used an Arduino to put it together.
Ok, Up next is from the same mother batch as the black beery. In fact, everything was pretty much the same except for using peaches instead of black berries during the primary and only fermentation.
Again, Nice, Light, effervescent, and a touch of peach really does come through in the aroma and flavor.
Notice the difference in color from the blackberry. That is entirely due to the different fruits used.
Made a little 1 gallon batch of beer from the second runnings from the Mango Monster.
Added a couple of handfuls of blackberries during the primary, and only fermentation.
Turned out nice, effervescent, and light.with a touch of blackberry. Not bad at all, to tell the truth.
Had to do a little Brew work today.
Needed to keg the summer ale. Managed to get about 8 gallons out of the fermenter. I had some issues with it as the dry hops I put in kept plugging the outlet tube. Ended up using a standard siphon to get the beer out of the fermenter. The kegs are in the keezer and quietly carbonating away.
Also Racked off the Mango and the Spine Bender Ale today. The mango was just a huge blast of hops and citrus and sweetness. Can taste the alcohol, but not in a boozey way.
The Spine bender was mild, and the non traditional hop choices added an interesting flavor profile.
Put them both in the outside fermentation chamber so I can get the temperature down low and help them to clear up a bit before bottling.
I will bottle condition both of these. Bombers for the Spine Bender, 12 ouncers for the Triple Mango IPA.
