JUNEAU’s second day of sunshine and 60 degrees is very unusual for this time of year or anytime of the year. Jerry racked his current Honey Blonde Ale into the second fermentor and I planned tomorrow’s brew, a Porter. We took a trip to the store for malt and such and on the way back, Jerry had us stop at the fish market for fresh oysters and a Black Cod (for tomorrow’s dinner). Lisa (Jerry’s wife) prepared cedar plank Sockeye Salmon and Oysters on the half shell for dinner’s main course. Then it was more homebrew and hockey for the remainder of the day.
Jerry ferments five gallons of brew in two separate five gallon carboys...prevents potential messes as A. Perkins can attest to.
The two batches are again made whole in the second fermentation carboy.
