Bottled a couple gallons of Hop Hammer tonight. It tasted much better than when I moved it to secondary before dry hopping. There was almost an inch and a half of hop matter in the bottom of the fermenter when I racked it into the bottling bucket. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of it. I also had a final gravity reading of 1.014 which is nine points higher than the previous reading I took. I am not sure what happened last time, but I trust this reading a little more because it is close to what I expected.
Bottling is getting easier and easier the more I do it. I put a towel down to work over this time and that made clean up a breeze. I also worked to make sure the priming sugar was thoroughly mixed throughout the beer. The vanilla stout had some carbonating inconsistencies.
