So who's brewing this weekend?

[Newbeerguy]

Yep got some propane and brewed another batch today....with much better results.

Went from a dismal 63% eff yesterday to a much better 76% today. I brewed my first recipe from scratch today. I am very excited to see how my Pale Ale turns out!

Now its time to have a "few" homebrews Cheers!

 

[Agentaaron]

I will be working on a small batch of either a malted amber ale or a Vienna lager tomorrow...both are extracts, but I have them laying around...so why not.

 

[Brewin06111]

Just finished brewing my third batch... It's an American Wheat from Morebeer... Learning so much on here... Next up is a Pale Ale II also from Morebeer.com

I did an oatmeal stout that clocked in @ 82% efficiency. If it survives fermentation (was distracted by car club members who brought some carburetors for me to restore, it sat chilled, and open to the elements whilst in the kettle), I will add coffee and cocoa to the secondary.

I brewed up this extract recipe today. My first original recipe non kit brew. My OG hit 1.069 after temperature adjustments. Off a little bit from the recipe, but still right on for the style. Honey IPA, just sounded great to me. I think I am going to dry hop in secondary for a week with 1 oz cascade leaf hops.

I brewed the Loon Lake Smoked Porter today...third all-grain batch and it went pretty dismally. Missed my OG by 9 points and had 3 boilovers. I seriously need to upgrade my mashing equipment - a nylon paint straining bag and 32Q pot really don't cut it for AG. Regardless, I imagine it'll still be decent - just a bit too bitter for the style.

 

[MattHollingsworth]

Repeating my West Coast Pale Ale with some tweaks. Very small changes to the grain bill, ie slightly less crystal. Switched the hops from Magnum, Amarillo and Crystal hops with Amarillo in the lead role to just Crystal and Columbus with Crystal in the lead. The first version came out great, but it won't last long, so gotta get some more APA in the bottle to drink!

 

[DrMaddVibe]

Doin' up another round of NB's Patersbier.

 

[jkarp]

Just doughed in on Shiver Me Bitters.

 

[Hoppus_Poppatopolis]

Just put my first batch of Ed Wort's Haus Pale Ale in the fermenter. The only change I made was to use Amarillo instead of Cascade.
OG came out at 1.050 which isn't TOO far off of Ed's target of 1.051

 

[flyangler18]

Starting the two hour boil for my barleywine now.

 

[McKBrew]

Got bored. Had some grain and a mega butt-ton of fresh hops from my plants. I'm kind of winging it, we'll see what happens.

 

[FireBrewer]

Did 5 gallons of Scottish 80/-. Now getting ingredients together for a Wee Heavy. :rockin:

 

[masonsjax]

Playing hookie from work today to brew
Just about to collect first runnings of the Vanilla Caramel Creme Ale.

 

[jimba009]

Brewing a 10 gallon batch of Two Hearted Sunday! Gotta use some of that centennial i picked up from Niko!

EXCELLENT! I like your devotion to your craft....

 

[TwoHeadsBrewing]

Doing my summer citrus wheat on Friday evening, so I'll have something light on tap for the holidays. This time I'll be using Wyeast's Kolsch Yeast (2565), which has less sulfur notes and I think creates a cleaner, more crisp flavor.

 

[masonsjax]

Oh, and I'm enjoying a Stone Ruination while brewing. Life is good.
It's almost noon, so what?

 

[IrregularPulse]

Brewing BM's Centennial Blonde with all Simcoe.

I want to know how that turns out, what kind of bitter level are you going for?

Swine Flu Brew?

 

[bluegrassbrewer]

Planning on brewing a Scottish 60/- this afternoon after work and a Cascade Blonde on Saturday.

 

[johntangus]

I will be brewing an american barleywine recipe this weekend. Just in time for NEXT winter!!

Got some DFT Panagea, Sahtea and 90 Minute to help out brew day.

 

[MrVagabond]

Seeing as I'm just about ready to bottle my first beer, a brown ale, I'm setting sights on a new recipe. I'm still a little torn between an Irish or American red ale. I'm leaning a little towards the American, however I'll make the decision at the last second like I usually do. I highly doubt I'll be disappointed either way.

 

[SpanishCastleAle]

I'm making an ale I'm calling Aromatica Amber Ale. Shooting for something similar to Fat Tire but more hoppy.

 

[Glasfeena]

Going to attempt making some chicha on Friday.

The corn waso home germinated and dried in the oven. Going to mash and boil it like a beer and use lager yeast during fermentation. Shuld be interesting.

 

[masonsjax]

That sounds pretty cool. Hope it turns out good for you.

 

[Whut]

I'm brewing 10 gal. of KingBrianI's Common Room ESB on Sunday.
