6 batches and 30 gallons in 15 days.....all my fermenters are full right now.....I reckon I'll be a bottling and kegging madman next.......

I don't envy your upcoming chores. I hope you just keg all that rather than clean out ~300 bottles.
Although having all that beer bottled for easy storage would be great.

Probably about 60/40 kegging to bottling but let's see.........300*.4=120 bottles......120/24=5 cases.....and still have 3 or 4 more batches to brew.....I'LL BE BUSY.......

I've got to catch up and start brewing. WHERE IS MY MASH PADDLE!!!!
Got it all kegged and bottled except Component #1......just had my first bottle of the Allagash Clone.....since I've never had it and took it from Brewchez that it was good I can't tell you if it tastes like Allagash, but I can tell you it's good 
that's the important thing...... 
Okay, I want to make this. I have some questions tho.
1) How big is this batch? The malt extract seems like a 10 gal batch and the hops seem to belong to a 5 gal batch???
2) I feel like a total newb with this question, but what's (flameout)?
3) isn't a "pinch" of any one of those spices too little... or is it a pinch of each?
Thanks, I am real excited about trying this one.

The extract amount is for a 5 gal batch. Read at the end of the first line...it's giving you a choice to make a total 6.6 lbs of extract...

Flameout is end of boil, when you kill the heat source, before it's chilled.

I would say if could be a hefty pinch.....
I'm sure some of the other more experienced brewers can correct me if I made a mistake.....RDWHAHB!
Ah, missed that line... thanks!
Finally tried the real thing.....it has a little more body than mine but I think the batch I made has more flavor......
