- Don’t forget the meeting at East End Brewery on 29 February.
- I recently received a email from Anderson, one of East End’s brewers, who wants to give away his now-unused homebrewing equipment. The following items will be available to inspect at our meeting – and are free to good homes, with the following request, “All I would ask is that [you] make a simple cash donation to the food pantry of your choice in your name in lieu of giving me any money.” Fair enough.
Available are:
– 20 qt. dry good container with lid and handle – (container has amount markings)
– 8 qt. dry good container – (container has amount markings)
– 2 funnels of different sizes but functional for brewing
– 2 glass carboys – 5 gal. & 7? gal. The 7-gallon one has a handle at the neck
– 3 gal. cask that previously had Rye whiskey and then Rum
– 1 small hand-driven mill though a drill can/was connected to it
– 1 hydrometer
– 1 floating glass thermometer
– 2 thiefs – different sizes
– misc. items that may be of use.
- We also received a note from Brian Llewellyn about the North Hills Home Brew Fest. It’s Saturday May 9 at the Pittsburgh Shrine Center. If you want more information – whether to pour, compete or attend, go HERE . This is not an official TRASH event, but members have had good things to say about prior years.
- Nick Petti has a case of 20 oz bomber bottles, which he’s bringing to the next meeting. Before you buy any – see Nick – the price is right!
