IT'S SATURDAY: What ya brewin'?

[Mustangj]

I brewed a IPA used my 70qt mlt for the first time. :rockin:

Brewed a slightly tweaked version of the Edmund Fitzgerald Porter clone yesterday. Pitched a starter of wyeast 1098 and it was bubbling within a couple hours. This morning it's going gangbusters! Hope it's happy enough to dry that sucker way out.

 

[Melana]

We're brewing a porter this morning.

 

[Revvy]

As soon as I sober up and get some coffee in me, I'm going to do a tweaked batch of my brown ale recipe...I'm going to see what a pound of rauchmalt will do to the complexity of it...

Gotta love the cluck-cluck-cluck sound of an active blow-off in the morning. Might be the cooler weather, but got less boil off and ended up with six gallons in a 6 1/2 gallon carboy. Between that and the huge slurry this thing will blow in no time.

5.0 lbs Pale Wheat – BestMalz (GER)
3.5 lbs Pilsner – Weyermann (GER)
2.0 lbs Flaked Wheat – Oio (CAN)
.5 lbs Acidulated Malt - Weyermann (GER)
.5 oz American Tettnang Hop Pellets – Alpha 4.2% FWH
.5 oz American Tettnang Hop Pellets – Alpha 4.2% 15 minutes
Wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan Weizen 3rd Generation
90 minute boil

First time using the Tettnang won from Bobby_M's hop lottery. The aroma was fantastic. Can't wait to taste the results!

I hobbled around (did some bridge repairs Friday & tore a few muscles) and made the RMP clone. Instead of Amarillo and Horizon, I took an ounce of Nuggett and boiled it in 2 quarts of water for 5 minutes; then put them in the kettle. The hop water went in the fridge and got added to the fermenter with the yeast.

I'm doing a nice Czech Pilsner today..It's beautiful Sunday, with temps in the 50's and tons of sun.. Can't get any better than that...

 

[Hoosier]

I am brewing Orfy's Hobgoblin clone at the moment. This is my 2nd all grain and has been by far the most enjoyable session yet! I really don't miss using extract at all. The all grain approach is very zen like where when I was using extract I was a bit of a basket case... Though I think the expierence I gain each time has made it more relaxing.

Today I am brewing a Scottish Export 80/- and a Brown Ale.
I am kegging my Cherry Stout.

Yesterday I did my first all-grain, Edworts haus pale ale. went great, looks great sitting in the carboy this morning. Also had my uncle come over and brew a PM oatmeal chocolate stout. after that I bottled Apfelwein, and kegged my last extract beer a american lager for my dad. Both tasted great coming out of the carboy. The apfelwein was awesome after aging in the secondary for 4 months, and the lager tasted very clean after 5 weeks in the carboy with almost no sulfur smell (still gunna lager it for 3 weeks in keg.) overall the best brewday I've ever had!

 

[boo boo]

I did a Bo-pils for my first brew and following that mashed a American Pils. Made for a long day, but it was broken up by Chupacabras dropping in to share a brew and shoot the breeze. I did manage to make onion pickles after that.

Today is winemaking day and the drinking of only the finest of brews, my own.

 

[mysteryberto]

Brewing a pale ale today with 8lbs Maris otter, 2lbs Munich, 1lb Crystal 40L and 2oz cascade.

 

[Hagen]

I had me a busy day yesterday. I soaked and cleaned a case of bottles, bottled up a botch of porter, racked a belgian wit, and bewed an IPA. I started at noon. took a 1hr nap around 5, and finished by midnight.

 

[Timekiller]

I made a Red ale yesterday, its bulling away...

 

[IrregularPulse]

Also a wedding. Scopttish 60 goes on hold yet again.

Side note on that, Anyone know the meaning for the "60/-" and "80/-" like what does it stand for? I understand it represent the strength of the beer, but does the "/-" mean anything?
