Mashed another batch of my Strawberry Blonde yesterday. My efficiency was a bit low, so I ended up taking half the volume and doing a decoction with it, which brought me up to the 70% range. I have a barley crusher on the way so hopefully that'll help address future efficiency problems.
 
I made a nice Brown Ale yesterday. Used DB's awesome all grain technique. Hit efficiency around 67%. Not bad for all grain beer #3. Also managed to have absolutly no issues with the beer. No spills, no forgotten ingredients, no overestimate on boiloff, or underestimate on boiloff. It was just about perfect.

BTW, that makes 50 gallons of alcoholic beverages created in my apartment this year.
 
It's cold and rainy today but that's not discouraging me from brewing. Boil just started on another batch of March Brown Mild.
 
Gonna make a SMaSH using Franco-Belges Special Aromatic malt and Saphir hops. I just got a sack of this malt and want to try a SMaSH with it. Unfortunately it's a lager so I won't be able to taste it for a while. My first time using Wyeast Budvar Lager yeast too. I'm gonna make several lagers using this malt as a base and I'm calling it the 'Aromatica' series.

It's supposed to get down to 64 F tonight and not go much above 80 this whole weekend...after a week and a half of record highs. Sweet!
 
Kegging 8 gallons of Hefe and brewing a Mexican Amber sometime this weekend. Going to be sunny and cool, perfect brew weather.

:ban:
 
I am going to do my first mini-mash, a honey IPA with 5 varieties of hops and OG around 1.075. I know it is a little heavy for an ipa on the OG, but maybe that will be a good thing!

Good for you! (as I note the time stamp on your post and I sit at a computer). Friday always seems like a good day to play hookie from work and get a brew in before noon but i haven't done it yet.

I hope to brew an APA this weekend. It will be the first beer I repeat in my short brewing career. Last time, it was by far the best beer we have brewed so I am hoping for comparable results.
 
I brewed the last two weekends so both my fermentation chests are full (a great feeling). But I'll be kegging 10 gallons next weekend so I'll have room to brew more. Trying to get my pipeline stocked again after a long hot summer of no brewing.
 
Didn't you just brew 10 gallons of that 2 days ago? :ban:

Yep, I'm tinkering with some adjustments to the grain bill. :ban:

Finished around 11:30 this morning - and emptied my propane tank, too. Time to get 'em filled and plan another brew for this weekend.
 
brewing my 1st batch - Ordinary Bitter

that is, if i can get my uncle's propane burner from him today...
 
Well apparently flyangler brews 7 days a week so the thread may never end!:D

While I can sit and lie, telling you that's the case - I won't. :D

I did manage to brew three times this week, though . :ban:

This week was the first time I've managed to do any brewing in nearly two months.
 
Kegging/bottling my Backporch Amber Ale tonight. May brew my Cascade SMaSH this weekend, but it may have to wait until next weekend.
 
Brewing a Dunkelweizen tonight after work.

Have to keep the relatives happy at Thanksgiving!
 
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh lordy....im going to get my ingredients in the mail on wednesday the 21st and am probably going to brew that same day.

got a "double bastard" recipe that i did last year but with some adjustments;
Doing a double dry hop with amarillo and simicoe
adding oak spirals aged in evan williams bourbon
adding 1.5 pounds of dark candi sugar
double pitching with white labs WLP051 and nottingham
and it will be temperature controlled this time. last one came out amazing but this is going to be beyond epic.
 
Brewing a Pecan Scottish Ale tomorrow, then possibly the EdWort's Bee Cave IPA on Sunday. Probably wait till next sat for that though.
 
i am brewing an american ipa with magnum for bittering and cascade and willamette flavors and aromas at like 1.070 then on sunday if im feelin up to par a lighter brown or blonde at 1.040
 
Brewing up a Scottish 80 Sunday. Hope to have an 8 liter starter by then from a 26 month old pack of Wyeast 1728. Crazy, but a kick. It's now at 6 liters. First brew after moving to the new place. Been two years now....
