Brew day! Bottle day! It's a holiday!

no work for either of us today so we decided to do beer related things. oh so much better than work. re-brewing the BP, with a few changes. also going to bottle the previous batch of BP.

New BP:
1/4 lb black patent
1/4 lb crystal 40L
1/4 lb chocolate
1/4 lb honey
6 lbs pale malt
2 lbs dry amber malt
.05 oz Willamette hops 60 min (4.7% AA)
1 oz Nugget hops 30 min (11% AA)
Wyeast 1469 W. Yorkshire

heating the honey up this time. still gonna add it to the wort. we'll add it when its time for the wort to cool.

brix: 11.3. Which gives us an initial gravity of 1.046. Brew pal predicted 1.074, sooooooooooooooo, yeah. Guess we'll see what happens :)

Total bottles from the previous batch = 23.5 22oz bottles.
