Second dry hop infusion (Amarillo) goes in on Sunday, and I'll let it all sit for about a week until bottling.

Bottled this last night with a bit less priming sugar than I typically use (3.25 oz for 4.5 gallons.) Hoping to get the carbonation right, that should give me 2.2vol CO2. Beer weighed in at 1.020, so it's dead on with the recipe. Tasted pretty good, too

I bottled my all-grain Centennial Blonde on Friday. I had a few homebrews before starting so I hope I didn't screw anything up. This weekend I will attempt a Blue Moon clone.

I think we are going to try a wheat beer this weekend as well. We haven't settled on a recipe yet but I think it will probably a Bavarian style Hefe, fermented warm to get some banana esters

(just wanted to use the dancing nanner)
