10NOV2012- Brewing went well again without a hitch. I decided to start doing seven and a half gallon batches so I can Keg five for myself and bottle two and a half to give away. I'm not a big fan of doing ten gallon batches, being careful of boil overs and having to bottle a full five gallons. I think this will work out nicely. We'll see if I like it and keep it up if it works out.

I'm not sure how much I collected as I ran out of fermentation vessels and had to use a carboy for the five gallon portion. I know it's at least five and a half gallons but it could be closer to six. Ended up with exactly two and a half in the other. Can't wait for this to be ready.
