I gradually upgraded over the year to my present two fermenter system to finish with 12 batches @ 35 gal. These were stout/porter, IPAs, and 2 Belgian-style Tripel. Overall a pretty respectable effort and learned a lot to refine the production process and control temperature. Also managed to brew very drinkable product along the way so that's a plus for the year.

This thread is a tally of all brewers posting, if you want to add your brews to the latest total feel free to do so.

Someone last year said "Hey let's try for 10K gallons next year" we could use all the help we can get. :)
 
5533 + 5.5 for above post = 5538.5

and I just brewed a black IPA on Christmas eve at 5.25 gal.

5538.5+5.25= 5543.75
 
My yearly total should be completed today.

Total for 2022 is 45 gallons - a slow year. I'm hoping to brew more next year. Running total = 5688.25 gallons.
 
So who's brewing at midnight tonight to be the first batch of '23?
 
35 batches this year, the most ever (retirement is, in fact, what it’s cracked up to be :cool: ).
7 Blonde Ale (my house beer)
1 Robust Porter
1 Apfelwein
2 Altbier
2 Scottish Ale
2 American Brown Ale
2 American Wheat Ale
1 IPA
2 California Common
3 Irish Red Ale
1 Hazy Ale
2 Amber Ale
2 Weissbier
1 Golden Ale
1 American Pale Ale
1 Fizzy Yellow Lager
1 Cream Ale
1 Märzen
2 Czech Lager

151.5 gallons 5814.5+151.5=5966 gallons

If we can’t hit 10,000 this year let’s at least make it 6,000. Only 34 to go.
 
12 x 5 gallon batches this year (not counting a couple hop waters).
2x Coconut Porter
PB Stout
Amber
Honey wheat
Premium American Lager
Brut IPA
Festbier
Ordinary Bitter
Black IPA
British Brown Ale
NZ Pils

Also just realizing that the coconut porters were my first and last brews of 2022. Funny how things like that happen.

5966+60=6026 gallons
 
What's your recipe please?
I brew it several different ways. The basic recipe is 50% 2 row, 50% Pilsner, mash at 150°, 1/4 oz Magnum @60, 1/2 oz Cascade @30, and 1/2 oz Cascade @10. Ferment with any neutral ale yeast. Finishes about 5%, 18 IBU and 3-4 SRM. For a “light” version just reduce the fermentables by 20%. Ends up around 3.5-4%.

I also brew a hoppier version. 50% 2 row, 40% Pilsner, and 5% each Munich 10 and White Wheat. Same mash schedule and 1/2 oz Centennial @60, 1/2 oz Cascade @30, and 1/2 oz Citra @10. This one is almost a Pale Ale light. 5% ABV, 29 IBU, and 4-5 SRM.

I like the basic recipe because it has enough flavor to be interesting but not so much that a Busch Latté drinker will go into convulsions at the first sip. :cool:
