Let's start with this update on the coffee stout.

| It looks fantastic, is the update. |
As you can see, it was moved over to the carboy earlier this week, where it'll spend at least a week resting and refining before I bottle. I haven't always moved the darker beers to a secondary fermentor, but decided it would give the flavors time to merge and mellow out a bit before the coffee's added later.

| Plus, it makes for nifty photos. |
Fun fact: Sunlight and fluorescent light gives beer a skunky flavor -- great, right? So even though the basement lights are rarely on, I always make sure to wrap the carboy before stowing it.

| Looks so cozy, don't it? |
Next time -- a recap of this past weekend's homebrew competition, at which one man generously ran off with all the alcohol-based awards to spare the rest of us the pain of drinking them.
