I'm gonna go buy a 50 pound sack of base malt, most likely one called Simpson's Golden Promise. It's suitable for all scottish ales and any beer with need for a mellow, approachable base characteristic with good fullness and round characteristics. So to me that means a 70/80 shilling and an IPA. The scotch will be all base with a few percent of mild chocolate malt for color correction. I plan to make this the proper way, by boiling the wort for a very long time and adding only a small amount of hops, for which I will utilize one of, if not the, oldest english cultivars called Bramling. Simcoe, Northern Brewer, and most likely Amarillo will go into the IPA. This should mean a smooth bittering with noticeable aromas of citrus. Slightly pungent as well I hope. Rogue strain for the IPA and a standard Edinburgh for the scotch.

Dropped another 8 pounds in the last 3 weeks and reduced the bp from 135/82 to 131/76. That's on about 2000 calories a day. I still drink beer, and I don't plan to stop. I'm down about forty pounds so far I think. Gotta keep chuggin' though, I'm still a fatty. /TRUFFLESHUFFLE

Also, I just googled gravity brewing systems and steam firing, and then realized that I don't have the first goddamn clue about making beer aside from what I saw Alton do on the TV.

Who says "the TV"? God.

My sister found herself a homebrewin' boy who works in the Summit warehouse. He has given me beer. I approve of him.

Keep workin' on that weight, sir. It's impressive.
