It's Saturday Brewday - Watchya Makin?

[sudbuster]

Just finished up 10 gal. Marzenbier.

 

[Cheapo]

Was a long PAC craft fair day, didnt have time to take gravity readings, but my equipment is sanitizing now to get that done. Since I don't have a capper yet, or any PET's with caps, I'm going to be patient and let this first batch age. I plan to rack batch #2 onto pumpkin in the secondary late this week if the readings are all good. If fermentation is finished should I get it onto pumpkin as quickly as possible, or be patient with it? (Sorry, not to hijack this thread )

it won't hurt anything to let the brew age a few days until you can get decent bottles.

and, i can't answer your question about the pumpkin, but one thing i'm learning (the hard way) is that being patient is the right answer about 99% of the time in this hobby

[hopsfan76]

A personalized version of a west coast ipa. Not quite on par with stone brewery but I had them In mind as I made this batch. Hoping for the best. And worst case scenario I'm still drinking it when it's done

 

[GeorgiaTiger]

Id be lucky to make anything today...too buzzed from the tasting we went to earlier at red hare brewery!

 

[pellis007]

I brewed my first all grain batch today. 5.25 gals of an Oatmeal Vanilla Stout. Had a blast, efficiency was great, my DIY mash lauter tun worked great. Good brew day.

 

[dadshomebrewing]

grains on to steep for a dunkel

how 'bout you?

 

[Stauffbier]

Brew day aborted... Sick as a hop eating dog!

 

[dadshomebrewing]

oh boy, that sucks

 

[Stauffbier]

Yeah, nothing more disappointing than having to cancel a brew day. I've got some time off next week, so maybe I can do it then. I'm glad I didn't already mill my grain yet!

Here's the starter for Christmas eve brew

 

[hopsfan76]

Put my pale ale in the secondary, did some bottle cleaning, moved a few bottles from a previous batch to the fridge, prepped gear for my next batch which won't probably happen until after Christmas. Ill be ok until then, I still have fourteen gallons of various brews conditioning. Beyond that just doing some recipe research for the weeks ahead.

Tomorrow I'm brewing a Winter Wheat beer - figure I only have a couple more brew weekends before I can't brew "winter" things anymore.

This is also the second to last one gallon batch I make before I upgrade to 2.5 gallons (for the most part).

 

[unionrdr]

Gotta check the SG on my pm pale ale 3 weeks in primary today. Still gotta scrub the BK & strainer for the 2nd time & clean a few bottles.

 

[grem135]

Not brewing today as planed. Shipment got here late yesterday and got my yeast starter going last night for a Belgian Dubbel that I will brew up on Monday.

 

[TNGabe]

I'm going to brew something I don't have a recipe written for yet and probably won't be drinking for at least a year and a half.
