So, the ten-gallon batches, brewing only on weekends, has been fun -- but I sure haven't been getting much beer out during the first official year of the Blind Bat Brewery. I've shut down operations for a bit while I reorganize the little brewhouse to get the place ready for a 3-barrel system that should arrive in February 2010. (One barrel of beer is 31 gallons, so I'll be able to brew 93-gallon batches rather than the 10-gallon batches.) I'll still be brewing just on weekends, but I'll be able to get a whole heck of a lot more beer brewed and out the door in 2010 than I was in 2009.

I'll share more on the new equipment as I have something to show. I'll be keeping the trusty old Sabco equipment for a while longer, it will still come in handy for experiments and recipe formulations.

Cheers, and Happy New Year to All.
