Just a Song Before I go - Crosby, Stills and Nash

By the way, has anyone tried using Millennium as the bittering hop in this recipe? That's what Kona uses - http://konabrewingco.com/blog/beers/fire-rock-pale-ale/ I looked it up - it's a cross breed of Nugget and Columbus with an alpha acid range of 14-16%. Sounds interesting.

I taught a friend how to brew on my 10-gallon system with this recipe 3 weekends ago. He took half and bottled his this past weekend, I just kegged mine Tuesday night and can't wait to taste it (gonna sneak a taste today when I get home from work). Question for those of you who have already...

Billion Dollar Babies - Alice Cooper

You could try splitting the 2 oz of Amarillo and do an ounce at FWH and an ounce at 60. Just a thought...

Wild Wild Life - Talking Heads

Wild Thing - the Troggs [Edit] Oops, just read the other post, so.... Wild Thing - X

After I acquired a few 6-gal glass carboys I was doing multiple fermentations at a time, so I just ended up using my original plastic pail for sanitizing. Still have it, in fact, but I'm too cheap to spring for new ones so I just keep using the glass for fermenting. I just put them in old milk...
