    A stylish kolschburgh style on the final lap and a dubbelville Belgium trapp Chimayville red/premiere clone chugging away. And a cidertown getting old.

    As of two hours ago, nothing. It's been emptied, into five bottles (unfortunately, I lost 1/3 of the green beer to trub during racking). I've conditioned with brown sugar, which I have never used before. I hope that it will have an effect on the flavor. The color is right, but it's still a bit cloudy. The proof will be in the pudding, and I'll know in March.

    My primaries are going to take a break for a few days, until my sister leaves on Sunday. I doubt I'll brew that day, because I have so much else to do. Things which will ultimately lead to me drinking more beer, but not brewing.

    Basic Hefeweizen, and a hybrid Bock (traditional bock recipe fermented 70 degrees F with saflager, I guess you could call it a "steam-bock")

    My wife just moved her raspberry wheat to the secondary. Pretty cool that she finds this whole thing interesting enough to want to brew her own beers.

    Just put an Irish Red Ale into the carboy with a 1.06 gravity reading. Planning on starting an all-grain (first time) milk stout within the next week or so.

    Right now I have my Red Hook ESB clone cold crashing in the fridge in primary #1 and a fresh batch of Caribou Slobber churning away nicely in primary #2. Below is a shot of the slobber.

    I think it's like Ricardo's iron law of wages--no matter how much space you have to ferment, it's never enough. I have 58gal of fermentation vessel space, but started planning a 3BBL nano, and recently stepped my fantasy fermenters & bright tanks to 7BBL ;)

    At the moment I'm slacking, though:
    10gal Sculpin clone, 5gal CAP, 10gal coffee vanilla porter, and (conditioning/aging) 5gal each of Oaked Old Ale and Tart Cherry Farmhouse Braggot.

    Nothing in the fermenter, but three jars of wild rice wine are off to a good start. I'll check on them next week.

    I should stop saying that I'll brew on Friday, but I think I will. I have the ingredients, and I can do a smoked ale with Amarillo that will taste, well, wretched.
