So who's brewing this weekend?

[Whut]

Brewing 10 gals. of Ed's Haus Pale Ale as I type and getting ready to add the 20min. hops and chiller.

 

[Stickshaker]

Brewing 5 of Tongue Splitter from Northern Homebrewer. Smells kinda nice in here..

 

[neuron555]

[sea2summit3]

Happy November! Just fired up the strike water for my first all-grain batch... a nut brown!

 

[skeeordye11]

Vienna/Northern Brewer SMaSH. Thanks Death!

 

[flyangler18]

I'm torn between a Roggenbier and this Rye IPA . I'm thinking the IPA is going to win.

 

[MrVagabond]

Well, at the last minute I decided to just go for it and I'm going to brew 5 gallons of EdWort's Haus Pale today. This will also be my first attempt at primary only fermentation.

 

[Reno_eNVy]

Going to be making a Honey-Orange Hefe today. I know it's a bit out of season but it warmed back up here and it's gonna stay for a bit for we figure why not ^_^

 

[peripatetic]

Finished up a Norther Brewer Three-Hearted Ale (extract kit). Used my refractometer for the first time! Rehydrated and proofed dry yeast for the first time!

I'm starting to feel like a real brewer!

 

[neuron555]

A little late in the season, but just put to bed a pumpkin ale.

 

[LibertyBrewer]

I did a honey amber on friday, and pitched it on a Nottingham yeast cake. On sat. I did 5 of Nierra Sevada pale ale.

I have 5 in a secondary, and 2 primarys full. Life is good.

 

[motobrewer]

Christmas Ale.

it feels good to be at max fermentation capacity!

The Roggenbier won.

+1... I just hit mine as well! Two five gallon batches of cider and a nut brown :rockin:

 

[mmb]

Twenty five minutes into the mash on Orfy's Hobgoblin and already have the grain measured, milled and ready for a standard 70/20/10 Dry stout.

First brewday since March 8th '09! Gotta take a break in the middle to run my dad to physical therapy and radiation, but at least I'm mashing again...

Thanks Jason.

Spent a few hours cleaning everything this morning and finding bits and pieces that were missing. Killed off the last of my flaked barley as well. Time to put an order in...

Gonna try to fit in a Wee Heavy and a dry stout this weekend, if time allows. :rockin:

[PseudoChef]

Milk Stout
Special Bitter
Maybe something else for this huge slurry of Denny's 50. American Pale Ale probably if I have the hops.

5 gallons (PM) of Helles for TAFTHB day.
5 gallons of Saison that will get Flanderized in the secondary.

 

[TwoHeadsBrewing]

Got a starter going for brewing my stout on Teach A Friend To Homebrew Day. Actually, it's going to be a group brew day at Caspio's place and all three brewers there will be brewing this same batch...with different yeast. I'm using US-05, Caspio is on Wyeast 1056, and the other guy is getting some California Ale yeast from a local microbrewery in Oroville. I think there will be some sort of "stout-off" in January!

 

[Whut]

I'm in the process of modifying my brew stand so if I get it back together I'll be brewing. That's a big "IF" though.

 

[PseudoChef]

Going to brew Tasty's APA (Pliny Light) if I can borrow my friend's burner to make the day go easier.

Haha, what a coincidence. Friday I'm racking my first brew with Denny's Fave 50 yeast, washing the cake, saving a couple of mason jars, and pitching the rest on Sunday into a Pale Ale. Never used this yeast before but I don't think I've ever had a yeast starter smell so...clean. Starter flocc'd extremely well too.

 

[starrfish]

brewing another strawberry wheat (out of season but still good) 11/6
bottling improved "double diamond" 11/7
Helping buddy brew 2nd batch 11/8 or 11/9

 

[pdbreen]

Weather looks like it will be pretty decent around here this weekend, so I just smacked a pack of Belgian Abbey yeast to get a starter going tonight. For the weekend, I'm shooting for a double -

Phat Tyre & Lefse Blonde

This will be my 3rd generation with it - so that should tell you how happy I am with it. Exactly as the description says: excellent malt accentuation and I hit exactly 75% attenuation with both brews. This will definitely replace S-05/001/1056 for me. Took a little longer to floc for me, but them's the breaks :cross:

 

[annasdadhockey]

Doing up 11 gallons of EdWort's Robust Porter, minorly tweaked.

 

[ibrewit]

Brewing a Vienna Lager, all grain, 10 gallons on Saturday.

 

[khanti]

Brewing with a local club on Saturday and then Sunday probably a chili beer with a friend who's new (newer than me, anyhow!) to the hobby.

 

[HBRunner]

I've got to rack a Centennial Blonde to secondary, and the brew up a Dead Guy clone tomorrow......Should make for a good day!

 

[masonsjax]

Whipped up a WLP550 (Belgian Ale) starter last night for another batch of SWMBO Slayer I'm gonna brew tomorrow. This yeast should be a little less tart and more spicy than WLP400, but I've never used it before.

 

[Brewmoor]

I have an ESB that I am going to brew up this weekend.

I also have to bottle a batch of IPA. That should keep me busy and having fun for a least one of the days this weekend.
