Imperial Stout - Day 21
I pulled a sample today and the specific gravity is now 1.036 so it is still moving even if it is slowly. :-)

Imperial Stout - Day 14
I pulled a sample of the Imperial Stout today and I got a specific gravity of 1.041. Using an online calculator that give me a 6.05% alcohol by volume. I am going to call DeFalcos today to see when I should bottle and if I need to add priming sugar.

Imperial Stout into Secondary - Day 5
I racked my imperial stout into secondary this morning. I am trying a new rig for keeping the fermentation at desired temperatures that my friend Brian recommended. My friend Steve made the awesome lid. All went well as the pictures show it even began to bubble again right away. The beer is at a specific gravity of 1.048 or so and it is already tasting pretty darn good. :-) I am looking forward to bottling this one and getting to share it. Thanks a ton Brian and Steve!
