Many of us do. Are you just wanting to push your beer through on the way to fill your keg (Randalize)? When?

BTW who are you and have we met yet at a meeting? 115 members currently.

The beer is currently kegged. I would like to push it/flow it through into bottles and age until holiday time.
The product would benefit from a load of aroma hops at the nose.
I haven't met anyone, yet. If the May meeting is the week of the 14th then I plan to attend.

The next meeting is May 10. Meetings are the second Thursday of each month; usually no December meeting due to the Guild Christmas party.

I'd wait till December to do this. The hops will drop out, The carbonation will suffer, and you probably won't be happy.

Chuck: noted, and taken. Mahalo.
I'm not in town for the May meet.
Seek you in June.
