Homecoming Stout 30/09/2012

[Runwell-Steve]

I have finally got back home, and this time it should be for a while. In my brief stopovers home I have been slowly getting through supplies, and I am now down to less than 5 cornies with beer in them. I have 6 empty ones, which really need filling up.

First brew for a few months so I was expecting some disasters, but none occured thankfully.

I now have 45 Litres of Stout tucked away in the fermenters. No photos today as I have a camera shortage at present. (I left it in the hotel safe)
