Tragor’s Brown Ale- Bottled- Batch 49

Oooh, baby!  Got this thing bottled tonight.  Also got to use my new Christmas present!

The top part is called an avvinator.  You fill the bowl up with sanitizing solution, use the pump to spray sanitizer into bottles, then hang them on the bottling tree.  Worked great.

So, while the kids were doing the bottles, I was sanitizing my bottling bucket.  Then I transferred the beer to the bottling bucket.  Was going to take the final gravity, but my son Greggory in his zeal to help daddy dropped my hydrometer on the floor and broke it.  Grrrrr……  Well, no alcohol content for this beer.  Plus I’m out $7.  Second one I broke to date.

Ended the evening with 45 small bottles and 3 22oz bottles.  Should be ready for our family party next weekend.
