Anyone got a solera?
I've got a fantasy draft and then I'll be grabbing 30lbs of grain on the way home. I plan to brew two 7 gallon batches to put in the 15 gallon fermenter. I'm going to sour wort one 7 gallon batch to give the 1st pull a nice twang but it shouldn't be sour. That will also lower the pH of the solera to add another barrier to keep unwanted bugs at bay.
I will do the 1st pull of 6 gallons early, in about a month, and dry hop it with citra. Then I'll top it off with a batch of base brew and a starter built up from a JK Boxers Revenge. Then I won't do a pull for 6 months or so.

Brew on, brother. We need pictures of this beast of a process. Any oak going in to that?
I was hoping to brew today, but it looks like I'm going to get rained out.

Got about 16 gallons from two mashes and did one boil yesterday. Have nearly 8 gallons of wort souring now that I will boil on Wednesday and then add it to the barrel.
