When you start to really get into the hobby.

I know there's a lot going on here, but I just made an ingredients purchase run before the big snowstorm. Thought I'd share what fermentables I have on hand and what's going on in my fermentation zone:

Something like 75 pounds of sugar, 50 pounds of finely milled 2-row base malt, 50 pounds each of rolled barley and rolled corn, 4.5 gallons of molasses, 6 pounds of dark LME, some cornmeal, some grits, some oat bran, and hidden behind all that is a carboy of red wine made with OTC grape juice.

30gal in each fermentor. The left one is Damson plums, has been going for 3 weeks. The right one is bananas, has been going for 2 weeks. In the front row, the black bucket has pears(started one week ago), the two white buckets have rolled barley and 2-row base malt (pitched yesterday).

While I'm stuck at the farm and can't do much in the garden, I'll be running the still twice a day doing stripping runs on the brandies to make way for some larger scale sugar washes (FFV, UJSSM? not sure yet)

Gotta have hobbies.

Looks like you're getting it done. I haven't tried fruit yet. On my list for sure. I have been rocking Uncle Jessie' s with tasty results. I ran a single malt and it is very nice. Have fun with it.

Enjoy.
It does my heart good to see someone else enjoy this hobby and go full throttle.
