parti-berrill at merrill's

had an extra day off work today, so i thought i'd try out my new equipment...even though it was 38 degrees and snowing. i made a parti-gyle batch- 5 gal barley wine with the first mash runnings (1st gyle), and a pale ale with the second runnings (2nd gyle). used the recipe from the parti-gyle episode of brewing tv.

snowing in my mash
my new mug from norther brewer

ended up with an og1.101 on the barleywine (calling it 11lb. hammer), and og1.041 on the pale ale (calling it 11oz. mallet). I pitched that big-ass cake of wy1272 that I've been propagating into them, so there's plenty of little yeasts to do work on them. This will be rounds 4 and 5 for that same culture.
bake and i are also making a graham cracker porter tomorrow, got the wy1056 starter going.
