Don't mean to boast but..

This last batch of beer that I brewed is excellent. I built a fermentation chiller to control the temp and it has work magnificently. Compared to the last 2 batches of the same recipe this beer is stellar.

Ale. German Alt, which needs a long cold conditioning. Almost a month in the secondary fermentor @ 58*F.

Living in So. Calif., I've always used the "spare closet" method which means a continous 72f at best. Works for Hefeweizen (makes the Weiheinstephan really boil) but I've been looking to do a good "Christmas Ale" and was wondering if you've tried the "Super Yeasts " to cut down on fermentation time and PM me if you have a good recipe.

Donīt quit your day time job just yet.

But send me a couple of bottles and I will try to sell it in with the Swedish "Systembolaget" - which as you may know is the only (and Govt. controlled) place here that is aloud to sell alcohol (except for very light beer).

If they like it you have the whole Swedish market (and then you can quit day time job).

I will of course need to test it first myself. But at least I could show them the (empty) bottles..

I've been looking for a old fridge but this sounds like a better idea.
