Batch #25 - Irish Stout

A very busy week around here as we kegged the rest of the BW, racked and dry-hopped the Pilsener, and brewed another 15 gallons of Irish Stout.

We have two current issues we are thinking about:

1 - Water Bottle Neck. Specifically heating it. We spend a lot of time waiting for our HLT to hit our target temp. We're looking at a second keggle and burner so we can heat 30 gallons of water at a time instead of 15. We use around 25 gallons when we brew a 15 gallon batch.

2 - Lager Longer. We want to lager the Pilsener for longer than we can right now because it ties up our secondary carboys. We may start moving it to kegs earlier, lagering in the kegs for a while, and then moving the beer to clean kegs.
