So who's brewing this weekend?

[AlexKay]

And THAT gives a whole new meaning to “mash potatoes”:

Hoping to bank out a Koslch this weekend and did my first cider the other night.

Reminds me I need to head to Costco to get some Motts for another batch of ApfelWein. This time I'm going to try some cranberry since I love Beak & Skiff 1911 Cranberry cider.

I'll be brewing something tomorrow, but I'm not exactly sure what it'll be. I was planning on brewing an Amber Ale that I'm going to dry hop bean some locally roasted coffee, a combination beans and rough grind in a hop sack. Yesterday I went to my LHBS to pick up 12.5 lbs of grains, all mixed together in one bag. Went to mill them this afternoon and thought the bag seemed heavy. Weighed them. Sure enough 14 lbs. So I checked my receipt, and he charged me for 11 lbs of grains!! A double screw-up.
Since it's a 40-50 mile round trip to get it resolved I decided I'll just go with it.
The unfortunate thing is, I really wanted to try this recipe.
The fortunate thing is, whatever this ends up being, it'll still be beer.
The other unfortunate thing is, if it ends up being really good I can never replicate it.

Nice...I used juice that Aldi's sells. Guy who kills it in comps nationwide with his ciders and meads, swears by Aldi's apple juice for good basic New World Cider.

Got to thinking this morning; have a big competition coming up, that I have five entries in, one of them isn't brewed yet. And I have to do that this weekend, and if I do the Novalager WF lager I won't have any room. So that's getting pushed out a week or two, and will brew my competition entry (Citra/Sabro IPA) instead. As so rarely happens I have too much drinkable beer at the moment, yah I know first world problems.

 

[CascadesBrewer]

This will be the third one I’ve tried. The first two were … not good. Ah well, kartoffel me once, shame on you …

A local homebrew club has a yearly brewing item exchange around Christmas. There is a running rule (from a prior year before I was involved): "No Flaked Potatoes!" I am curious what qualities that adds to your "beer."

Just mashed in on the "mystery" Amber Ale.

This weekend American Pale Ale with Citra.
Next weekend Blonde Ale with Cascade.
Cascade and Citra are of my favorite hops.

 

[lumpher]

Just brewed 5g hefeweizen while transferring my 7 month old homemade watermelon wine for more bulk aging. It was a good day. Hit the marks on the hefe and the wine had a really good watermelon taste without being too dry.

 

[South Arm Brew]

Brewing a Cold IPA with my brew club that has a tap handle at STIGGS Brewery in Boyne City, MI. It will be the first time I’ve tried this. Should be fun!

 

[day_trippr]

Early start plans were laid to waste due to staying up late. Ah well...

Underlet strike...

Recirculation set to cruise mode...

So far so good

[edit] Fly sparge started...

[Another edit] HLT and MLT cleaned while BK is on the boil. Numbers all look great!

[And another edit]
Recirculating WP hops at 170°F...

[And another!] Filling carboys...

[Last edit] yeast pitched and wort oxygenated...

Into the ferm fridge and hooked up to my keg purge system...

Kegs to be purged.

And that's that

Cheers!

Yesterday.

 

[cmac62]

I have 5 lbs of peated malt and I plan on brewing a Peated all grain wash this weekend, does that count?

 

[Abrayton]

After taking most of the winter off, I’m planning to brew a simple but delicious cream ale this weekend.

 

[jcav]

Brewing a Belgian Pale Ale and I am ramping up to mash out as I type. Smells great out here on the back lanai!

[camonick]

Brewed a Czech Pilsner this afternoon.

This is a perfect example of what the color difference looks like depending on volume and the kind of vessel the beer is in.

 

[bracconiere]

Only $46 so I guess I can afford it....

 

[AlexKay]

No brewing today, but I kegged 5 pilsners, a Baltic porter, a stout, and an IPA.

Oops, forgot the American lager. Kegged that too.

 

[leedspointbrew]

Brewing a Common ale this weekend, my last batch for quite awhile - the only neighbor who (said he) liked my beer suddenly started drinking wine.........

 

[grampamark]

Brewed a Wheat Ale today. Sort of a hybrid of an American Wheat and a Weissbier. 45% Pilsner, 45% Wheat, 5% C50 and 5% flaked corn. Perle and Tettnang to 20 IBU and K97 yeast. 4.5 gal to the fermenter (4 gal batch). Beersmith predicted .050; missed it by that much.

 

[DBhomebrew]

Brewing up a dark mild tomorrow courtesy of Ron and Kristen. 1952 Lee's Best.

 

[wetmk]

[caddiemike]

Brewing 10gl of Wee Heavy, Smoked Scottish Ale. 31 pounds of malts are going into this ale.

 

[zasada]

It may be a Cascadian Dark Lager or Cold Robust Porter or Czech Dark Lager with a twist but it contains 7kg pilsner malt, 0,5 kg crystal 56, 0,25 grams of each: crystal 225, special b, carafa 2 & 3 dehusked, and 200 g of Simcoe hops.
12 l ferments wirh w34/70, 13 l with polish equivalent of munich lager yeast and last 8 l with voss kveik.
Boom!
edit: it was my first brew since november!

Rebrewing my previous beer because it went way to fast. Think it only lasted 2 weeks in the keg. I think it’s a cream ale, haven’t figured out what to call it exactly. I used US05 at 60° last time but going to try using Bell’s House yeast from imperial (since it’s almost Oberon day). Think it’ll change the flavor profile too much?

3lb brewers malt
2lb. Pilsner
2lb Vienna
1lb flaked corn
1oz Hallertau mittlefruh 45min

Finishing up a rauchbier:
