    No brewing today. Maintenance. 10 Kegs cleaned/sanitized/new o-rings.
    Dip tubes scrubbed. Silicon for the out posts, rubber for the in.
    3 Coke/pin locks converted to Pepsi/ball locks. Yeah baby! 2.5G minis in the bottom of the pic.

    New Beer fridge work. The GF's gave up the ghost a week or so ago.

    20170722_213235.jpg

    2009 Kenmore freezer, $50 on Craigslist. Mounting everything in/through the door. Johnson top right corner (doh!). We'll have to see if the low temp alarm works and annoys or not. 5 kegs and CO2 can fit inside and 2 racks of beer/bottles above.

    Beautiful! That's the way to do a kegerator.
    I haven't homebrewed since my last kegerator died, and I just can't stand bottling anymore. Starting to get the itch to go scour Craigslist for a fridge...

    One of the best I had. About 30 days old. One thing I like is the citrus. Many seem to have too much citric acid come through but this one is well balanced.

    Had a big Stone Tangerine Express IPA to start the NASCAR race today. Not actually paying much attention, just an excuse to drink beer early on a Sunday.

    Cantillon aged in a cognac cask. It's held up well these past 10 years..

    Enjoyed an ICE from Modern Times while playing 18 today with my pops. Almost shot my best game and broke 90 but struggled on the first three of the back 9.

    I call this picture "The @DrFunker" as we always get the neck down picture :D

    The GF was saying it was past its prime. That is probably right. It didn't have the level of enamel removing sour you get from other gueze from Cantillon, but I remembered it as being reduced from the cognac anyways.
