Jonathan and Joel successfully make beer (without Jeff)
As we’ve already mentioned Jeff is on vacation so Jonathan and I had to take over the role of brewmaster for the evening. Basically it involved playing on an excel spreadsheet, taking a few gravity readings, and doing some cheesy tours for the newcomers where you pretend to know a lot about beer…it was NOT very difficult.
BTW, if you are wondering where Jeff is on vacation, I will take this moment to share that he was SUPPOSED to go to Switzerland but on the eve of his departure realized that his passport was expired (as you can see below). Silly Jeff had to scramble last minute and is instead taking his wife to Montana (Dollywood was the other option but I think they opted out of that as Rednecks.org was going to be holding their annual convention there this weekend).
On another note it was a really fun crowd last night. Brewing went well and Jonathan might post later about using the salt water in the cooling process (it will be a rivetting post I’m sure). We thank Alexandra for bringing (homemade?) brownies and look forward to “more goodies” which have been promised for next time.
Those weren’t homemade. Nice try, Alexandra.
Hmm…. I’m not sure you want to be posting that much info about Jeff on the site. You might want to photoshop the private info like DOB, passport #, etc. so it can’t be seen.
DJ, that’s Jeff’s name Photoshopped on some other noob’s passport who actually posted it online. Notice the long, flowing mullet and Joel’s stupidity in not Photoshopping the original name on the bottom of the passport.
It sucks to be Paul Etienne.
Had a great time last night – thanks for letting me stir the wort.
