What did you smoke today (NC) II

[jrfoxx]

Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale

Extremely tasty and flavorful with a hint of spice. More full flavored than most Connecticuts I have had. Definitely a medium-full or full

Perfect draw and construction. Burn was uneven, but not badly

Overall, a great smoke and a nice departure from other Olivas

It is! My wife got me pushed down that hill a while back. I quickly went from extract kits to all grain batches of self made recipes. I enjoy math, science, cooking and beer, so it’s a great combo. I mostly brew Belgian styles but I make a bit of everything except IPAs and sours.

Awesome! I used to brew myself a long time ago, when craft beer was just starting to pick up favor.
Wondering when you have time?

I’ve got it worked out that I can typically do a Belgian brew day in 5.5 hours (longer step mash) and any other style in about 4 with clean up happening later. So every 2-4 weeks On a day when my son isn’t here, I get out of bed about 7 am and get things started. I have a little corner carved out in my garage that I brew in and I sit there and catch up on work (calls, emails, accounting, etc) while brewing. Get brewing done by 12-2 pm and then get to my office for more work.

Sounds great! With all the kids, the cleanup BEFORE I started brewing put me off. Just never got back to it. Now, I just find it easier to buy what I want. Plenty of options.


Hmmm. I think in that time you could catch up on some CigarBum.

Love me some Belgian beers. We're going to need you to go spend some time in a Belgian monastery and bring back some secrets!

Curiosity got the best of me. Unfortunately the shop I stopped by did not have the Decade, but did have The Edge. Happy Sunday and let's go Croatia!!

You know, there's been days I have considered being a Trappist Monk... Especially if @Nature is going to shame me like that. There's actually a Trappist Monastery near Bardstown Kentucky that one of my friends spent a couple months staying/working. Pretty sure they don't brew there though.
