So since the last time I've posted, the brew crew decided to either *hit or get off the pot when it comes to beer brewing. We brewed a *
few* good beers, and a couple
REALLY terrible ones. The final straw was when we realized the entire time we thought we'd been cleaning and sterilizing all with one product, it was really only a cleaner. We lost an entire batch of beer (that was a low point). So we decided to learn more about our "craft" and joined a local beer brewing club, The Bloatarian's.
We're starting out all over again, taking classes and brewed the chocolate porter a second time to see if we could do it right this time. We also decided to go back to our roots, and brew the only beer that people asked for seconds, an American India Pale Ale on the same day we bottled the porter.

First, notice the attention to Instructions and to Star San
Second, we had to purchase a few new toys - a bottle sanitizer and a bottle tree
