Brewed #124 yesterday. A Pliney The Elder clone. I got the recipe here:
https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/attachments/0000/6351/doubleIPA.pdf I was telling Hugh that making wine is so much easier! Takes about 2 hours tops to make wine from start to bottle. This was towards the end of a 6 hour brew session for only 5 gallons AND it was BIAB style. My efficiency isn't the greatest with BIAB I think I will go back to using my mash tun and doing 10 gallons at a time. Not seeing the time savings.

Here it is after pitching the yeast and rocking the carboy to aerate (that's my Merlot on the left waiting till bottling day).

And here it is this morning fermenting away after about 12 hours.

For you guys that keg, here is an easy way to clean your tap lines and taps. I still take my taps apart every few months depending on usage but never see anything to speak of that needs internal cleaning.
Go to Lowes or HD and snag a $9 pump up garden sprayer. Clean it good with some PBW or OXY clean.
Remove OEM spray tip. Thread a 'Liquid Out" post from a keg onto pump. Add your favorite cleaner, pump to pressure, remove beer line from keg and attach to "liquid out" post, open tap and catch cleaning solution in a glass or pitcher. Just run enough to get thru the line good. Let that sit in the line for a 5 mins, then repeat. I use one pump bottle per tap.
If I have a keg ready to hook back up, I just flush the beer line with beer then proceed as normal. If not, I flush the cleaner from the line with a sanitizing solution like no rinse Star San and let that sit in the kegerator until the next keg is ready.
No need to waste CO2 and a lot of product using another keg.
