Finished at 1.001 for an 8% abv. Never had a beer finish so low. Cheers!

Nice. Let me know! I'll be in Atlanta Monday and Tuesday of next week

I live in Athens and work in Dunwoody. Love your ZD clone!

I'd do 2ish weeks... and go ahead and brew another batch

just looked at it (in a bucket) and it looks like the krausen has dropped. Might wait a few days before dry hopping. Smelled great.

day 10 update: Used a 2L Wyeast 1056 starter and had huge fermentation activity within 4-5 hours of pitching. SG was 1.062. Had to clean the airlock/blowoff tube twice within 48 hours. Never have I seen such a violent fermentation. Switched to the standard 3 piece airlock after 4 days. Well...

Just tasted this after 1 week in a bottle. Woh, I think it's ready. And it's good. I can't believe how quickly it went from grain to glass... 3 weeks! Mine came in at 4.2%

Nice! Mine's been in the bottle since monday and I am itching real bad to check on the progress

No clue. Probably varies by grain...

bottled and ready to condition! OG: 1.044 FG: 1.011. Finished at 4.3% ABV. Used Wyeast forbidden fruit.

Have 2 5 gallon glass carboys I never use anymore and would like too trade for your 6-6.5 carboy with brewhauler. Local trade in Atlanta or Athens.

A new LHBS, Schoolhouse Beer in Marietta said they'd do a group buy at cost+20%. Not sure if that's a good deal or not. PM me and I'll shoot you his contact information.

How long to bottle condition? 3-4 weeks is standard for great tasting homebrews!

Yeah buddy!
