Well I have the week off and decided to brew some beer and rebuild my kayfun russian clone.

Brew is a Belgium Blond strong ale at 8.1 percent.

vape is on mech with 1.5 coil and cotton on magneto mech.

A nice day out too.

Any other brewers out there? What you got going?

I keg most beer too, running 2 taps. Just killed dunkel and cinnamon vanilla porter still left.

So, I think we should just be best friends now! I used to work for New Belgium up in FoCo and really miss the beer world! I freaking LOVE blonde Belgian ales, one of my top three beer styles for sure. Oh how I wish I could brew and vape right now. I've been a judge at a few home brewing competitions in Fort Fun, and boy, some were really bad, and a few were REALLY good. Cheers and happy brewing to you!

Avid homebrewer here. Ive been brewing for about 19 years now. Mostly meads and melomels, but ventured into beer about 5 years ago. Beer is a little more complex, but much much faster. My fav, as well as quite a few of my friends fav, is a Belgian Brew I spice up and tone the hops down a bit. Think a Blue Moon with more creamy citrusy notes with a heavier body. :) It averages out to be about 9.2% so I named it after my fav local band (happen to be friends too) Ikonobrau :D

That being said, I'm getting into making my own liquids, since many of the same things are required - sanitary environment, sanitary equipment, and a hefty dose of flavor knowlege.

Been learning how to make my own flavor extracts for use in brewing, which I'll probably experiment with the ejuice as well.

So, holy_handgrenade, how many people have asked if you are getting/have Innokin's Cool Fire 2?

I have been a homebrewer for 9/10 years, first 1/2 mr beer ( had to begin somewhere like vaping with an ce4), 5/6 years doing extract, 1/2 now all grain. Have a cooler mash tun, and only do 5 gallons now. Next step is 10 because joined a club and keep giving bombers in trade all the time. I brew once a month or when kegs are low.

Want to do a sour next or possible a meed, but inpatient and hate waiting 2 weeks for beer already.

Will see what happens in 2 week with my beer. Leaving for Germany for 2 weeks and want to keg before I leave, so ready when I land back home.

Now all my reference are numbers are x/x......coil builds have now changed my vocabulary. Lol.
