So who's brewing this weekend?

[unionrdr]

I brewd twice this week-last Sunday & yesterday. My new recipe-Cougar Country IPA,came in @ OG1.061 PM style. Yesterday's re-brew of my Maori IPA came in at OG1.074! Must got some really good efficiency. I even poured the top off water roughly,stirred roughly for 3 minutes straight as well. I did do a good hot sparge with a lil more than 1.5G of water on the 5.5lbs or so of grains. Even added the usual pound of demerara sugar per recipe.

Yoopers oatmeal stout! Have a friend coming over for his first brew. Hoping to light the burner in the next half hour. Unfortunately I came down with a cold/flu last night. This should get interesting. Hopefully I can think straight.

 

[Tritonal]

I'll be brewing my first attempt at an ipa on saturday and if there's time I'll start a half gallon test batch of tea wine

 

[geek_chaser]

We will be brewing Red Bread Red Ale. I plan on making beer bread with it.

Brewing my first fresh hop ale. Going to use Cascade and Meridian freshies in a very simple malt bill.

 

[jmacker]

Brewing my "Maybe Next Year" Brown(s) Ale tonight.

 

[Padawan]

I will be trying my hand at Yoopers banana wine recipe, with 25% more banana.

 

[bigskygreg]

Will be brewing my oktober(fes) ale. This will be my first AG batch. Also, my own recipe. The waiting to taste will be the hardest part!

 

[Dustinj]

Brewing 5 gallons of a French saison with wyeast 3711 pilsner 2row and acidulated.

First AG so well see how it turns out in a couple months.

 

[tdogg]

just finished a pumpkin porter. first time with pumpkin. note: pumpkin in mash needs rice hulls!

 

[mjdonnelly68]

Brewing 10 gallons of my Charlie Brown Ale for a friend's Turducken Party in November.

Flame on at dawn with a full day of brewing ahead of me. Life is good.

Started a batch of cider last night, although it hardly felt like "brewing" because it was so darn easy. This orchard freezes the juice because they don't use any preservatives, which means I usually have to put the frozen jugs in a cooler and add hot water to the cooler, drain, and repeat over and over for an hour or so. When I picked up the juice this time, it was so fresh they hadn't had a chance to freeze it yet, so all I did was open the jugs and pour the juice into a fermenter and dump yeast in. With sanitizing and cleanup, I was done in 15 minutes which, hey, is kinda awesome.

 

[Melana]

Brewing 10 g of porter today.... Hoping all goes well....

 

[unionrdr]

The next 3-4 days are supposed to be in the 60's around here. Thank God,my 2nd batch of IPA I pitched on Wednesday got up to 80F+. It's going down slowly now. gotta get the $$ to build that fermentation cabinet...

 

[wells11]

Night brewing a pumpking clone. What was really cool was the fire orange harvest moon.

 

[airdog_47]

Currently working on a ESB. Brewed up a Mexican Pilsner last night with the full moon.

 

[Piratwolf]

Brewing 5 gallons of a French saison with wyeast 3711 pilsner 2row and acidulated.

First AG so well see how it turns out in a couple months.

You could probly be drinking that beer in 24-28 days. 3711 is a beast that ferments very fast, so you could bottle at 7-10 days and pop the first 2 weeks later!

 

[BarefootFriar]

Double batch with my brother-in-law: a British IPA and a London Brown Porter. Only bad news is that the rain and a plumbing problem has moved me from my normal perch atop the back porch to under the carport -- and I don't like the publicity! Here's hoping no one notices.

 

[ittybittykittycommittee]

Chocolate milk stout for me. Third batch total, first all grain! In the mash tun now and I'm stoked!

 

[Beer-lord]

Gonna do another Men in Black IPA on Monday. Been about 6 months and I'm craving it.
Thanks tknice for the recipe.

 

[BrotherGrim]

Just pitched the yeast on a Soriachi Ace hopped IPA. Hopefully it will turn out good enough for competition.

 

[geek_chaser]

Making a Winter is Coming stout. Super excited to try this. But first, bottling an agave wheat.

 

[Xtant]

Just finished cleaning up from brewing 5 gallons of Biermuncher's Centennial Blond... and I have a 23# Turkey in the oven. Unrelated, but awesome nonetheless...

 

[BeerGrylls]

Just finished 5 gallons of my 'Yard Sale Pale' .. Cascade for bittering and loads of falconers flight for aroma/flavor/dry hops. Pitched it into the Conan yeast cake from my heady clone. Prost!

 

[vinylrooster]

Just finished 5 gal surly bender clone with my new home made hop spider.

 

[JEnglish]

Just about to start brewing an Oktoberfest and keg a 5 month old cider.

 

[C-Rider]

I'm brewing my Joe Louis IPA. It's an American Black IPA.

 

[gometz]

Just finished brewing my first altbier.

But somehow I got 80% efficiency instead of my usual 70-75%. I guess it'll be a Sticke Alt now.

 

[BarefootFriar]

Best brewday ever! Hit my estimated gravities on both batches, and if my math is correct, brewhouse efficiency on each was 82% and 86%, respectively. I'm pretty stoked.

 

[bigskygreg]

Just finished my first all grain batch. Went pretty well
