Looks like it's receding now but there were quite a few closed roads & streets from localized flooding. Most of that was between 6 last night and 6 this morning. I got another 0.6" today to make it an even 5".

24 hours accumulation in central Ohio

Grew up in W. Unity but have been in central Ohio 25+ years. A quick search on American Homebrewers Assn. website has contact info for clubs in Bryan & Wauseon.

I did check with White Labs and they emailed me a copy of the report with a 1-21 date on it. The online public report definitely is showing me 3-21; must be a bug (no pun intended).

Thank you for the tip on the Lacto species - I'll give it a try!. Your post for fast souring looks fantastic. Thank you for the help!

Jumping on to the end of this older thread since it was the first hit on my search... I'm planning on brewing a Berliner Weisse style beer (Kottbusser) next month sometime, so ordered some Lacto delbrueckii, as per the recipe I'm going to use. I get 90% of my supplies & ingredients online from...

Brewed a Vienna lager today. Pitched with a starter of WLP833.

Adventures in Homebrewing is where I now order almost all of my ingredients and equipment from. They have a really good selection and shipping is fast. I'm close enough that my orders arrive the day after they ship them and they typically have my order out within 12-24 hours of placing it.

I have a 7 cu. ft. freezer and two 5-gallon carboys easily fit in the deep side.

I have a Kentucky Common boiling now. I plan on entering it in the Ohio State Fair competition assuming all goes well from here on out.

I have a Munich dunkel, helles bock, and pre-pro lager that i brewed on consecutive weekends in January. All are sitting at 32F currently in my chest freezer. Couple of more weeks and I'll start bottling.

This is a really fascinating video! Here's an English translation of the intro from the actual Youtube page: "A guide to brewing beer (brewing beer at home). And not 20 liters with expensive equipment, but 500 liters with the simplest means over an open fire in the garden! There is no beer...

I brewed 4.5 gallons of Kentucky Common on the first of the month (OG 1.051), split it into thirds, and pitched the splits with WLP001 California ale, WLP080 Cream ale, and WLP810 San Fran lager. Fermented at 62-63F. I thieved some samples a few days ago; the refractometer corrected gravities...

I've had most of them at one time or another. All very good... Columbus Brewing makes some really solid brews. They have displaced Great Lakes as my favorite Ohio beer to take home from the grocery store.
