So who's brewing this weekend?

[SaguaroMan]

Started my starter last night, doing a Chainbreaker White IPA clone tomorrow. Using White Labs Belgian Wit yeast for this one

 

[mrkrausen]

Brewed a robust porter this morning and just pitched the yeast on it! Can't wait to taste this one.

Just finished a 80 bitterness American IPA from a recipe I found in my late uncles stuff. Thought it would be a great first all grain for me. I added some spring water I gathered from a hole in the ice when we were sledding last weekend. I'm naming it Seeley's Second Spring IPA since it's my sons second birthday today. My hose was frozen, so I had to hook up the chiller directly to the spigot outside :/

For measurements...I have a fb on there too and I like to know how much volume pre boil and post boil I have and adjust the hop additions to that..
My kettle is 26 gallons and .075 =1 gallon..

I got ya. My pot has depressions for every quarter gallon I put on with a metal punch. Ruler is a good idea.

Brewing a Pliny the Elder clone tomorrow, brewed a Black IPA on Friday. It's way to cold out but the kegs are getting low. Gonna have to brave the elements in the name of home brew Time to sit back and enjoy one of these!

 

[Bulls Beers]

First thing in the morning..Another batch of my Helles lager..

 

[Frige]

Just finished up 10 gals of my vienna lager. OG around 1.070. This is probably the 6th time I made this one. I have started leaving it in the fermenter for at least 3 weeks, I can really tell the difference in the taste when it gets some extra time.

 

[pumpkinman2012]

I brewed the Lagunitas Brown Shugga clone today using 2 vials of WL002 English Ale (ESB strain), I pitched the yeast at 5:00 pm, by 9:30 pm there was activity in the airlock, this has to be the shortest lag time/fastest acting yeast that I've used so far.

 

[punkrawkgeek]

Put on a batch of cider... 2 hours and already bubbling away. Apple and Pomegranate. We'll see what it turns out like.

Did you put the brown sugar in the boil or will you add at high krausen? Yeast love love refined sugar.

 

[Bulls Beers]

Bout ready to boil in below zero temps...WTF!!! Don't make me go out there!!!

 

[jhart94949]

I brewed in the 40-30's about 7 weeks ago and I think it messed with my efficiency, all my numbers were low. Beer turned out awesome just about 1% lower ABV than normal.

 

[Bulls Beers]

It's the wind that sucks. I put a wind shield around my burner, but it's still a pain in the ass.

[dan6310]

Has anybody tried brewing inside a large family tent. Some I've seen have a pretty tall ceiling height.

 

[Bulls Beers]

Brew some for me!

Done..Thank goodness.. In 8 weeks, you'll have some..

 

[Beersnob16]

Brewing a batch of Darth Vader black ipa right now

 

[DrunkleJon]

Forgot to start my starter. Had to miss brew day yesterday. At work now and realizing I still havent started the starter. Maybe I can fit a brew day in on tuesday after work if i get the starter spinning before bed when I get home. Or maybe I should just wait until this weekend and have a more leisurely brew session.

Lol I brewed in my garage on sat. It's 14 f outside, but after an hour boil, my burner raised it to 62 f in my garage. I'm so glad I paid the extra money to have the garage walls, ceiling, and door insulated.

 

[Pommy]

I finally got my first brewday of the year yesterday. It's nice not to be so busy working that I have time for more important things like brewing. Also looking forward to brewing the final trial batch for my first commercial brew, contracted at a local 600L brewery! 2014 is going to be a good year for brewing!

 

[finsfan]

Hopefully finally brewing up my Black IPA, depending on whether my current fermenting batch is done by friday.

 

[Melana]

IF the Polar Vertex lets up i'm going to take part of Friday off to brew.... something DAMNIT!

 

[smileyak87]

I'm flirting with the idea of doing my red hook all grain clone on Saturday. Empty carboys fill me with anxiety.

Same here! Just bottled four different beers last week, now I've got the itch once more.

I want to take a stab at doing BIAB with a Irish Red. I have yet to do anything other than extract.

I have 10 gallons of brews going from the past two weeks that I've yet to bottle. Don't have any empties to bottle anything new and will have to buy those along with the ingredients.

I have three empty primary carboys sitting in the corner and don't have anything to do this weekend. Sad thing is, I"M BROKE! Ugggg

 

[GrogNerd]

Saturday, another try at my DB8 clone, this time scaled down to under 4.5% ABV, for club competition

that is, if we get a break from all this global warming

 

[jpcourtney]

Planning on brewing some Cream of Three Crops. I'll probably mash on the stove and then boil outside as it's only suppose to be a high of 31F. You know I have to get a batch in this month!

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Brewing another batch of white ipa after making the kids dinner, and a 6 gallon batch of apfelwein hopefully when I'm done brewing. Need to get some full fermenters as I'm down to one beer and one cider! Glad to have not moved up to all grain brewing outside as it was 0 when I woke up with a -30° wind chill.

 

[fowlbrew2]

hopefully a clone lager

 

[Zuljin]

American lager.

 

[dustys_dad]

The hardest decision I'll make all week.. deciding between an ESB or a baltic porter to brew Saturday. Hmmm.

 

[Swarley88]

Not brewing but bottling tomorrow. I need to open up a carboy.
