It's a BARLEY CRUSHER!!! And what do you use a Barley Crusher for??? ... come on now, anyone??? Anyone at all??? ... That's right, it's crushes BARLEY!!! Malted barley, to be exact... And why do you need to crush malted barely??? To get to the sugary starchy GOODNESS inside of it that will turn WATER into BEER!!!
So why is this exciting, you ask? Well, I've been wanting to get my own malt crusher for a LONG time, so that I could mill my own grain and brew FAR more frequently and easily (and most importantly, have the beer end up tasting as fresh as possible!). But what good is a malt crusher when you've got no malt? Not much... soooooo...
ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL!?!? MALTS, HOPS, YEAST, A CRUSHER, AND A FERMENTER READY TO GO!!! If this does not make you giddy like a school girl, you have no soul...
In this pile of ingredients lurks a Cascadian Dark Ale, a Brown Ale, an American Pale Ale, an English Pale Ale, a Red Ale, and an Oatmeal stout, all of which are just WAITING to be brewed!!!
Stay tuned to my blog in the coming week(s), and we will be sure to take a quick jaunt down the road of home brewing, and see what wondrous things we can find down that road! until then...
Enjoy a craft brew!!!
