10 gallons Pilsner + 341 =351

I do all grain and try to brew once a month , I skip December because it’s a mad house with all the events the wife has me going to . I really look forward to the 6-8 hours it takes . I treat it like an event , I have guys from work over and we smoke pipes and cigars while brewing !

So I’ve been experimenting with wild yeast ( brett ) since my 3rd brew and want to get into doing sours . Doing a Berliner Weiss has seemed a bit daunting as I don’t want to mess kettle sours and don’t want to wait 6 months to get a proper mixed fermentation going. It’s my understanding that Sac...

I always add fresh yeast at botteling to avoid this . Might give it a try , a little goes a long way

I make a bad batch once and a while and I just drink it and brew something else. I figure I’m not learning if I’m not messing up here and there. My two batches I have going now look to be promising and my best 2 yet.

I just slap a solid bung on and cold crash . It’s a bit of a pain to get it off later but no suck back

9150 + 3 gallons of cider = 9153

+10 gallons of brett fermented American cherry farmhouse . = 8765

I plan on doing a low gravity cherry farmhouse ale fermented with 100 percent Brett b . I have the Brett , I have the grain. Going to be approximately 15 pounds of grain for a 11 gallon batch. Now here’s the dilemma, I have east Kent Goldings , but plan on doing a secondary with king...

Plus 10 Gallons of pumpkin Jack cream ale = 8399.5

I like the saaz , I prefer noble hops to all else , I guess I’m a bit of a beer weirdo. I would like to use a cluster hop sometime though , just to be ultra traditional.

so this is a recipe I’ve been working on , its a pre Prohibition cream ale using saaz hops instead of nuggets. I’m still working on it but figured I’d post it up, I’m pretty sure I’m done tweaking it for a while. I’m using a water profile I built on brewing water using my local tap water as a...

My first batch was an all grain Hefeweizen, 10 gallons. I had been watching that beer and bbq channel by Larry on YouTube for a while and I saw an add for 20 percent off at Northern brewer I jumped on a 10 gallon starter system .

Post your mistakes from brew day that have gone on to change your brewing / recipe for the better ! Last brew day I was drunk and put my saaz additions into my cream ale at 30 and 15 vs the normal 15 and 5. It bumped the bitterness up on the recipe I’ve been working on all year to perfect...

Havnt quite done this but have 2 Brett strains in my Saison, a purchased strain and Orval , I have 2 bottles of cantillon and 2 bottles of jester king waiting to be used . It’s going to be super funky once I combine it all ! I probably need to add some lacto planterum to the mix as well.

15 pounds of fresh white winter wheat strait off the the family farm , harvested last week !

Just ordered some caps and labels for my next brew.

I plan on doing this too . Right now I’m working on perfecting my cream ale , brewed it last month and plan on brewing again this weekend . Once I get that down I’m going to be adding roasted pumpkin to the mash , maybe a little carafe for color adjustment and just a pinch of spice.
