    What I did for beer today

    Purchased ingredients for a black wheat I'll be brewing tomorrow. Its my only day off all week, and probably for the next 8-9 days, so I want to make something that will be ready by the time I get my next day off. Might be able to squeeze in another brew day one night this week, so I can make a...

    What have you learned this year?

    This. The first time I made my hefe I got caught up talking to the neighbors. Missed my strike temp, og, and my pitching temp. That beer was... Drinkable.

    What have you learned this year?

    i learned no matter what you brew, people LOVE it, if its free. I've heard "this is the best beer I've ever had" from at least 5 people in the last month. its nice to hear, but i think the free price tag places a pretty big role in it...

    looking for a black wheat/black Hefe recipe

    Had one at a local brewery and thought it was awesome. Seems like a nice variation on an easy wheat beer. I love doing hefes cause I can get them brewed and kegged so quickly, and this seems like a nice change from the normal. I really liked the subtle chocolaty flavors playing off the banana...

Only 3 block down from falling rock, and an awesome Tap selection (lots of stuff I couldnt find anywhere else in town). By far my favorite beer bar that I went too...

    Austin Homebrew Supply is on the opposite side of town from me, so about 35 minutes each way. I'm really forgetful, so Im in there almost every other day picking something else up that I forgot during the last trip...

    What I did for beer today

    just moved my robust porter over to the secondary. Tasted a little bit, and hands down it's the best beer I've brewed yet. I'll cold crash in 6 days, then keg it 3 days later. Cant wait!!!!

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Cooled, pitched yeast, and in the closet. My hydrometer fell off my table and broke so I couldnt get any readings. Cant wait to get this in a keg though, it smelled amazing.

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Just mashed in on a pretty big robust porter. 15 lbs grain bill for 5 gallons. I should have started earlier but I couldn't get my lazy ass out of bed before 9 am. Oh well, hit my mash temp and it smells amazing in my garage.
