Yesterday, I decided to brew, but didn't have time for a full brew day, so I made an extract beer and used kveik for the first time. This stuff is an absolute monster.
I pitched the yeast at 2:30 pm and then left the house for a crawfish boil. Got back to the house 4 hours later and the beer already had a krausen on it. I checked the gravity this morning, now 18 hours since pitching, and it is down to 1.030 from 1.051. Considering the estimate F.G. to be 1.010, this beer has reached 50% completion overnight.

That's pretty awesome. Once i move into our new home, i'll start brewing for enjoyment again.
Right now, i have to brew for necessity. I have 2 sours i HAVE to bottle before i move, so it's sort of a mad dash to get it done before we list the house. I did manage to bottle another one of my sours Saturday. Decided not to fruit this one. I took inventory of my entire bottled sour homebrew beer and i have about 60 bottles laying around.
