Nice, mine's actually still in primary, next weekend I'll transfer to secondary and add the oak chips that are soaking in Jack Daniel's.

Brewing up a GF Double IPA tomorrow...anyone else brewing a GF brew this weekend?

Let me know if your Double ends up tasting winey. I've yet to make a batch of GF beer over about 6.5% that tasted right.

Sunday was brew day for me. I'm attempting an all-grain GF Belgian Wit. Mostly malted millet, with some unmalted roasted millet and chestnuts (plus the usual...hops, bitter orange peel, coriander). OG was lower than I was shooting for, but I think I had poor efficiency (didn't crush the millet fine enough...grrr).

Cheer, Pete

I actually finally brewed up that Lager. Should be an interesting one to taste, going to be adding a couple pounds of honey to the primary tomorrow.

That's still pretty awesome, I haven't had time to get back to malting lately

Having problems with the recipe, mainly because I may not be able to get some Amber Candi sugar and because it was a last minute decision.

Really just an excuse to drink some beer, teach a friend to brew and play some Xbox 360

So, who else is brewing?

I brewed an IPA that weekend as well. What hops and qty did you use? When I get home I will post my recipe on this thread.

Just got done brewing a stout this past weekend. GF oats is a good way to get that silky texture in the beer.

I haven't touched my 360 in months and I haven't even gotten in to COD, maybe this summer though..

Depending on how the beer turns out- I will post the recipe, as of right now I am thrilled- it smells delicious

Here's a little though:
.5 oz Chinook (90)
2.5 oz Warrior (90)
1 oz Simcoe (45)
1 oz Columbus (30)
1 oz Simcoe (flame out)
2.25 oz Centennial (flame out)

Dry hopping with Simcoe, Centennial and Columbus additions every week for 3 weeks.

I adapted it from a Pliny Clone recipe on here.

Wow thats hopping it up! When I originally started to bew GF beer I was interested in doing an IPA but the guy who works at the homebrew store said that lots of hops and sorghum dont mix. I found this NOT to be the case and more hops covers teh sorghum taste... Maybe he used hops that I didnt use...
