Home Brewing

Breaking in the home brew ware with the Appalachian Brewing Supply Anchor Steam Clone last weekend.

Boiling water and steeping the grains.

Dissolving the malt.

Adding one set of the hops.


Quickly cooling the brew.


Pouring the brew into the first stage fermenting container.


Watching the temperature...

...and now we wait! (and drink beer to save the bottles!)
