Bottling

Bottled the beer yesterday, re-tested the wort, very tasty, quite sharp though. Will see how it progresses. Decided to put the priming sugar in a bottling bucket as opposed to doeling it out piecemeal.

Now in another six weeks we will have Sage Ale, will tell you how it comes out.

So far so good

Started secondary fermintation on the Sage Ale today, tasted the wort, very, very tasty! It's a sharp beer, that's for certain, but the changes I made I think helped tone that down significantly. Can't wait to see how it ends up after bottling.

Probably will keep it in there for 2 weeks. Kept it in primary for 3 weeks. A little long, but I prefer longer processing times.

In other news, nearly finished up the prologue of a new book "The Evercharm." Working title..
