My Brew Day 2/27

[zac]

I put this in DR&MM b/c I know I will be tommorow.

I'm planning BM's red hook clone, Black Butte Porter Clone, My own "Haus" inspired Pale ale (I'ts not really all that pale with .25 lbs C120L in it), and also for the grand finale, a double arrogant bastard clone.

I expect all hands on deck around 6am, so I'll need each and every one of you to be in chat by then so I can ask questions of you.

Got the starters started, and the bottles rounded up for the 4 batches that will be bottled tommorow.

Wish me luck!

Good luck!

 

[UnaBonger]

Wow. Ambitious day. Best of luck!

Care to share the DAB clone?

 

[zac]

Sure.

1.4 lbs 120L
16. 75 lbs 2-Row

2.75 oz Chinook 60
1 oz Chinook 15
1 oz Chinook 5


Its very complicated.

Ive never tried it tho, so good luck!

How'd the brew day go? Get all 4 done?

 

[UnaBonger]

Sure.

1.4 lbs 120L
16. 75 lbs 2-Row

2.75 oz Chinook 60
1 oz Chinook 15
1 oz Chinook 5


Its very complicated.

Ive never tried it tho, so good luck!

Complicated in what sense? Yeast?

Una, actually, yes I did, and also had time to rip off another Haus Amber (Fat-tire esque)

Yesterday went so well that I went ahead & brewed today too. An Arrogant Bastard clone & EdWorts Bee Cave Heffe. Also kegged a stout, and a weiss & added a few pounds of blueberries to a batch of Afelwein. Also moved a mead over to secondary fermentation.

I was only kidding about the DAB being complicated. It super easy, just big. Its Cali Ale yeast. Very easy brew to do.

Speaking of cali ale, I need to make up another batch of starters.. I only have 1 quart of cali ale left... looks like I might be doing something brewing realted tommorow!

Hey BM, that Red Hook clone came out a lot darker than I remember Red Hook being, have you noticed this before?
