So who's brewing this weekend?

[philipCT]

Saturday it will be Brewniversity #5: American Wheat Ale.

 

[DrunkleJon]

I am thinking I am going to break my brewing-fast for the year (I havent brewed since October/November, sad I know) with a SMASH comparison. A smaller batch/stovetop 2-Row, MO, and Optic comparison using some of my leftover last year Cascades, Amarillo, or Simcoe or something and the grains I got in a recent buy.
That and maybe a 10 G batch of an IPA of some sort, or another stout if my remaining keg of it is not good still.

Todays task is to refill my CO2 tank, buy the last parts for my keg/lines/fermentor cleaner, and pick up the remaining ingredients for this weekends brew(s).
Then there is thawing out that pork butt and get it ready for smoking something this weekend.

Currently mashing in on thunderworms American Wheat

Have the Brewers Best imperial IPA extract kit planned for Saturday.

 

[Ridire]

I haven't brewed in months. Planning to make an AG IPA on Saturday.

 

[BigJerk]

My dad left me his brew stand, so I figure it's time to dust off the brewing cobwebs and brew again for the first time in 2.5 years. I'm gonna use his wit recipe and call it Dad's Wit. I figure it's a good way to get back into the swing of things and pay homage to the man. He loved beer and loved brewing. It was one of the few things we both enjoyed. Sunday I'll toast the old man, fire up his rig, and make him a beer.

 

[yukonhijack]

Picked up my hops and grains for an IPA brew day on Saturday. Sunday is one of the last ski days for this year, so I need to get this done Saturday. Yeast is on the stir plate

 

[pkincaid]

Finally back to brewing after vacationing.
This weekend is a couple different ciders and cream of three crops. 20 gallons total.

 

[knobz]

Planning to brew a 10 gallon batch of saison on Sunday with a bit of rye, wheat, oats and I'm going to try out Wai-iti hops for a citrusy taste.

I can understand that and think making your Dad's Wit will be one of the best ways to get back in the swing.
Enjoy the brew day and the memories. Just finish brewing a wit today had a snow day and took full advantage of it.

I am brewing a Maibock this weekend. A first for me: I plan to use the yeast from a previous batch.

 

[browder]

I'm brewing a Yooper recipe today and another on Monday-four day weekend at my house---Have Weihenstephaner Dunkel Clone on tap but it's not gonna last till Monday no way

 

[kristiismean]

I am, the mackinac red kit from AIH. (extract)

gotta keep my primary full.

 

[Goon]

I have to take this weekend off from brewing. Have a skit trip planned for Sunday and visiting friends on Saturday. That and I have a back up in my equipment. I have 4 beers either in primary or in secondary. The primary beers need to transfer but I have nothing to transfer them too! I need more carboys!

 

[JonM]

I'm doing a Dusseldorf Altbier first thing tomorrow morning. This will be my first time using the Therminator for an AG batch. I figure with the plate chiller and batch sparging, I should cut a substantial amount of time off the brewday.

It's also my first time building a starter from a slant. It appears to have been a smashing success (so far, at least). After 5 days of various step-ups, I have a nice thick layer of slurry at the bottom of my Erlenmeyer all ready to go tomorrow.

It was so nice that I ended up brewing this recipe today Now I have time to brew another tomorrow!

 

[Onkel_Udo]

I am doing an experiment with Stovetop BIAB (20+ years as a 3-tier, 10 gallon guy). Doing one of my house beers...a dark mild/Black IPA'ish beer.

Did a water test today and my biggest issue is avoiding over-confidence. I am so comfortable with my process that I have forgotten how nerve racking waiting for the boil-over can be.

1.047 OG, 50 IBU's, 25 SRM...should be fun.

 

[ol-hazza]

Im in the middle of my boil right now.
Lawnmower lager, using lager malt, pacific gem and wakatu.

 

[brewer20D]

OK, so now that I've Kegged my maple brown last weekend i have a empty carboy so I'm planing to do another batch of Brandon O's Graf..... Stuff is amazing!!!! :rockin:

 

[atoughram]

More SNPA Clone on Sunday...

Attractive lineup. Do you shield them from light when not being photographed? Or am I just overly paranoid about skunking?

 

[brewer20D]

Yes they are kept in the dark, I use to put shirts over them but got tired of not having any shirts for me to wear..... Lol

 

[Brewtah]

Maybe Sunday:cross: A Black IPA

 

[olotti]

My first attempt at a Hefeweizen Tomm. Not worried about hitting the numbers but more focused on making sure the ferm temps stay in the right range. My basements great for IPAs and apa's but this will b a def trial on using such a picky yeast for the first time. I'm using wlp 300 hefe yeast since my lhbs didn't have the wyeast weinstephaner. Used wlp500 for a Belgian ipa and that turned out great but I think that yeast is a little more forgivable temp wise. Either way brewing Tomm and I'm excited.

 

[olotti]

I haven't brewed in months. Planning to make an AG IPA on Saturday.

Heck yeah it's supposed to be around if not in the 40's here. Do it. Lol this cold weather can't leave soon enough and looks like we may b in the clear.

 

[okiepc]

No brewing, but bottling 6 gallons of Columbus IPA. Can't wait to try it in a few weeks.

This is the clearest beer I have made to date, used whirlfloc & gelatin along with cold crashing for a week, YES, its got to be good.:rockin:

 

[Kirkwooder]

I just mashed in batch of Cascades Orange Ale.

 

[Genghis]

Tomorrow morning will be the Centennial Blonde that was scheduled for last weekend.

 

[JonM]

I can't believe it - I'm sitting outside in the sunshine with no coat as my Dusseldorf Altbier is boiling away and I'm watching the massive snow piles shrink. Love it.
