So who's brewing this weekend?

[campbelldm1]

Brewed an IPA this morning. Pitched a giga yeast ipa pouch and the airlock was pinned within an hour

 

[wtaylor3]

Modified my cooler MLT with a cpvc manifold this morning...thinking I may do raging red IRA in addition to my dads american light extract kit tomorrow

 

[Genghis]

Once I get a pile of bottling out of the way (Centennial Blonde and Apfelwein), a batch of Skeeter Pee.

 

[oogaboogachiefwalkingdeer]

Bottled two five gallon batchs, a Yooper House Ale and a IPA. Then brewed a five gallon honey ale and a five gallon nut brown ale. I think I will re organize my brew stuff and throw some pre cleaned bottles in the dish washer to get ready for next week end.

 

[signpost]

Brewing up an 8 gallon batch of brown ale to sour with ECY-20 Bug County. Biggest single batch I've done, but I'm boiling in two vessels for safety purposes.

 

[Gduck]

Not brewing this weekend, but I will be doing a brew on the 1st. Brewing a RIS that's going to max out my mash tun for a club barrel brew.

 

[BGBC]

Wort cooling for a lemon rosemary gose.

Brewing tomorrow as well. Pale wheat w/ Conan.

Sounds like a nice week off! :rockin:

 

[z-bob]

I will be either brewing on New Years Day, or building a stirplate and playing with yeast starters and then brewing on Saturday. Next beer in the queue is a simple cream ale

• 85% American pale ale malt
• 15% corn
• I haven't decided which hops to use because I don't have any Cluster, maybe Willamette.
• Nottingham yeast.

 

[markstache]

I'm holding a "Brew Year's Day" party. RIS not to be opened until 2015-12-01.

 

[brewcephus]

I will be brewing New Year's day as well. Going to brew up 10 gallons of Yooper's DFH 60min clone.

 

[Brew_Dude41]

To celibrate my 1st brewversary on the 1st, I am going to do my first AG batch. It will be a MO Amarillo SmaSh.

 

[Pyg]

Making my first brew attempt this weeks. Got a nice Hoppy Pale Ale from the LHBS.
Even tracked down a 7 gallon pot, just because I fear my 1st brew boiling over in my 5 gallon pot!

 

[seigex]

Brewing a basic American wheat tomorrow for new years with a buddy.

 

[masaba]

Brewing my first lager this weekend. I have the starter in my fridge right now!

 

[JonM]

Going to do a robust porter this weekend. Now the decision is - do I make the big starter in a jug tonight or, since I ordered a 2000 ml Erlenmeyer flask on the 25th (to go with the new stir plate) do I wait and do a 1.3 L starter on the stir plate? The flask is only coming from Illinois to Milwaukee, Wi, so I might risk waiting.

 

[sportpak]

Did two 1 gallon extract IPAs today. It's crazy how easy a small, hopped up, 15 min boil extract brew is. I need to do more of these this next year.

 

[cochised]

Hopefully do a Hobgoblin clone tomorrow

Take January off the drink every year so shall be ready for my glorious return

Take January off the drink every year so shall be ready for my glorious return

I usually do that in March. It's amazing how much your alcohol tolerance resets when you abstain for a month or two. (and how quickly it builds back up again afterwards)

 

[Zepth]

Tomorrow (Happy new year!) I plan to make a belgian dubbel. I want to brew up 10g total, so I'm evaluating a single boil and somehow getting an IPA-esque beer out of half the wort. Either a hop tea after the boil of draw some wort off to do a mad late addition / hop stand sort of thing outside of the main BK. Still have some time to think about it.

 

[razyrsharpe]

Brewing an all grain knock off of Kilt Lifter. Hope it turns out well.

 

[BrewerinBR]

I will brew a English Pale Ale (ESB) tomorrow morning. The first brew of 2015 is batch number 123.
In 2014 my first batch was number 95 an Oatmeal Stout on 03JAN14 and my last batch was 122 a Black German Lager on 27DEC14. I did 27 five gallon batches in 2014 for a total of 135 gallons of beer.

I am wonder where all of that beer went?

 

[catdaddy66]

I plan on inaugurating my new range by making an American Amber ale (extract) on Sunday! Then I'll be back to all grain for a cream ale the following weekend.

 

[1977Brewer]

I was trying to get everything together for my first 5 gallon batch, but apparently the electric bill is important. I'm headed out to Bed Bath & Beyond to see what Brooklyn Brew refills they have. I hope they have the IPA. I've heard good things about that kit, if you fudge the hop schedule a little.

 

[MaddBaggins]

Old English style ale.

 

[Schmoogdaddy]

Today is my 3rd annual traditional New Year's Day big beer brew.

First time was a smoked doppelbock. Last year was Wee Heavy. Today, Russian Imperial Stout.

Dang, I knew I forgot something! I ordered the ingredients for the Kottbusser first thing this morning. Just sent the wife to the store with my card & forgot the spring water! Had to text just now while they're getting pale ale liquor cigs & food. Need to get the ESB E/SG kit brewed up while I wait for the Kottbusser stuff to come in.
Dang PBW is going up. $9.99 per pound & I need two these days. Momma likes cleaning her kitchen stuff with it. Even got her two different size brushes.

 

[razyrsharpe]

I brewed an attempt to clone Kilt Lifter, a Scottish Ale. First time i have used my gas burner and i am much happier as i got the vigorous boil i had lacked the last 3 attempts. i got closer to my target OG than i ever have. It went smoooooooth...

 

[mrphillips]

Putting together a Spruce Ale this Saturday. Should be a fun experiment!

 

[imasickboy]

Did a robust porter New Year's day, and have an Irish Red on deck for the morning, and a yet to be decided upon beer on Sunday.
