So, anyone else get homebrewing stuff for Christmas?
I got “Designing Great Beers” by Ray Daniels and a subscription to BYO.
What did you get (things you bought yourself for Christmas are perfectly fine…)?
I got a nice gift certificate for my local homebrew supply shop!
Randy Mosher’s Radical Brewing from my son, who’s becoming a new homebrewer in New Orleans.
I got “Principles of Brewing Science” by George Fix. I will be reading this after I am finished with “Yeast: The Practical Guide to Beer Fermentation” by Chris White & Jamil Zainasheff ;D
Nothing brewing related but Ms. Tubercle added a dulcimer to the musical instrument collection 
Time to get off this dry yeast kick…
My wife doesn’t know it yet but I’m getting a new 20lb CO2 cylinder. She gave me a remote read smoking thermometer and a Kindle. Along with the parts bin rack I received it was a very good Christmas.

Supposed I’m getting a set of a large and then small bottle rack. Supposed to hold up to 300 bottles. Finally the beer is going to get out boxes sitting on the ground and get organized!
My wife claims she got a Blichmann Hop Rocket. I thought I got that for me!
For some reason that just doesn’t sound right. :-\ 
I got both “Designing Great Beers” by Ray Daniels and “Yeast: The Practical Guide to Beer Fermentation” by Chris White & Jamil Zainasheff.
Birthday’s in January, and expect some sort of Stainless Steel equipment for that
I got yeast book.
Better start reading!!
Christmas was good to me this year. I got Charlie Bamforth’s Beer Is Proof God Loves Us, a pair of Blichmann brewing gloves, a couple cornies, two sightglasses, and a gift cert. to my LHBS. ;D
I got a poster, “Keep Calm and Have A Beer” and also two bronze plaque-type things, one that says “no drinking aboard (without the captain)” and “real ale served here.”
Also, I left my wort chiller (a spiral-y stainless steel jobbie) -outside- and -full of water- so… I need to buy a new one, or figure out how to bend the SS back to the proper shape.
Got an nice NB gift cert (placed order this morning) and a new to me 40cu/ft oxygen tank. Going to get that filled today and get a oxygen regulator and put my micron stone to work. No more of those mini bottles for $7 a pop.
My wife got me a wort chiller (hallelujah! No more ice baths in my small sink) and a gift certificate to my LHBS. I was starting to get worried seh was getting sick of my new hobby but I say this shows her full support. ;D ;D
Haven’t broken it in yet. I am out of malt!
I plumb wore out my old Barley Crusher. What a fine service it gave me over the years. To replace it Moonbeam gave me this! I won’t be motorizing it. I’ll be using my trusty HoleShooter that I built three houses with. It has always worked just fine.
My inlaws gave me these . I need to figure out how I’ll use them since I use buckets. It was a very thoughtful gift, and am grateful for such nice inlaws.
Wow, those are super neat! I’ve never seen anything like that before - I guess they’re basically weighted ping pong balls? I would worry about contamination though, if they’re not made of the right kind of plastic.
