I've noticed this too on a wine of mine, after transferring it looked like most of it stayed behind. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Did you boil the orange peel before adding it to the mead? Just curious for my own future reference.

Yeah, that looks good, very professional. You'll have to let us know how it comes out, it sounds fantastic!

That is amazing! I'm pretty impressed with her biceps, I guess this is proof that beer is good for you. Well her at least.

Sorry for the delay guys, the in-laws are in town and I'm pretty busy with them here. The birthday was great! I got a couple 5 gallon corny kegs so I'm mostly done bottling my beer which is fantastic news, I hate bottling. I brought some of the pumpkin spice beer I just made to a get together...

I appreciate that Waldo, Thanks.

As it has aged, it is the best beer I have ever made. I only have two left and it's getting better and better. I think I will bulk age the next one so I can't drink all of it before it is ready.

That sounds and looks awesome man!

DancerMan, I'm up in Denver and I couldn't agree with you more. Our fall weather is the best, but you're right, it has been warmer than usual lately.

That sounds tasty, good save.

Transferred to the secondary today, got a little taste and a SG reading. It's spicy, but I think it will be very good.

Right on, thanks for the info. I'll have to try that next time.

I bottled it up today. I didn't use any bananas, just a teaspoon of banana extract and a hefty starter of WLP300. I bottled it with a few ounces of 99 Bananas. I let you guys know how it turns out in a week or so.

Hey Vcasey, did your husband put the pumpkin in the mash or put it in the boil? I was looking at both options and decided to go with the boil. I would like to try fresh pumpkin in the mash though.

oh yeah, 15 minutes at 122 and 60 minutes at 154. Mash out at 168.
