Today I brew a batch of Smoked Porter named so far Smoking Gobbler Porter (per Mom's request). This is the first porter I have try to make so we will see what happens a couple of months from now ... since it takes six weeks in the carboy before bottling.

| Refractometer |
This also was the first batch I used a new piece of equipment for me called a refractometer. I compared the readings to the old method using a hydrometer and the reading were the same. Thus I will only need a couple of drops of wort vs 20 oz like before ... saving brew for the bottle and slightly lowering costs. Additionally, this method is so much quicker.

The Sweet Sharon & the Brinton's Wheat Mist for the upcoming contest are bottle and ready to be submitted. I have to get them in by Tuesday since I am leaving for business in Cabo next week. What a tough life.
