What are you brewing today/weekend, post pics...

Actually, when you get right down to the nitty-gritty of it, None.

 

Burn?

 

Found a new HBS, and I'm trying his Blue Moon clone.


Sent from my van, down by the river.

 

You said it's effective. I've got no problem with ghetto gear if it works. :rockin:

 

Brewed an Amber ale on saturday...Beautiful day to brew.

 

You just never know what you can find browsing around good will. I kinda feel like Im the odd man out on this forum, what with all the folks who own and love top end gear. I doubt I've spent more than $200 on equipment, and that's mash tun to bottle, all inclusive. Maybe I should do a writeup on how to approach this hobby effectively on a budget.

 

what else you dopes?!?!



13.4 lbs Avangard pils malt
2 oz Weyerman Sauered malt
1.5 oz Tetnang (Mash)
30 IBU perle 90 mins
1 whirlflock tablet 15 mins
Re-piched german bock yeast
OG 18.4 Plato
2 decoctions! (yay!)

 

Some of us go overboard on the equipment. However, we all know you can brew good beer with a simple setup. In fact, you should do how to videos with you equipment.


Good luck

 

I recently brewed a nut brown with 1968. It is kind of crazy. After 2 days @63 it just quit on me. No airlock activity & the krausen dropped. I put it in a room @ 66 & roused it a couple times over a day. It took off again & worked steady for a week. Ended up @ 1.012 after 12 days, 2 points lower than Beersmith estimate. I'll keg that one friday & brew a dry stout on sunday. Prost!

 

This weekend I brew Nothing. Camping and drinking homebrew so I have enough empties to bottle 12 gallons next weekend.

Some weekends we need to drink the beer we brew...Have fun.




Cheers

 

I thought it would be fun to take some pics of a brew day. I forgot how busy I get and I completely forgot to take pictures of things like hop additions, wort chilling, pitching, etc. Oh well, it's all in good fun.

My first all-grain brew: Jamil's a Kolsch recipe. Should be a good one!

Brewing my first lager! A munich helles using WLP860.

Did also a light decoction for some maillard reactions, hope that shines through in the final beer.

Cheers!

 

Brewing a Session IPA. I'm not sure how it's going to turn out, but I'm sure it won't be bad. Here is the hop schedule I threw together.

 

Nice, I like the selection of hops.



Cheers,
