So who's brewing this weekend?

[goose1873]

brewed a batch of haus ale yesterday. I love brewing outside...

 

[TheWeeb]

Brand new to this, just about to start on my third, after the AssBock (bottled) and Apfelwein (one week in carboy). This time it is a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone extract kit; adding nearly a pound additional DME to boost it up a bit, extra Hallertal hops at the 60 min boil, extra 1 oz of Cascade at flame-out, and plan on dry hopping with 1 oz of cascade once it hits the secondary. Does this make sense (noob here!)? I am going for something that is a bit closer to an IPA.

This turning out to be a rough brew day.

BK sprung a leak after I filled it up....I had to quickly rack off the wort, take apart the bulkhead fitting, and fix the leak. Now I'm racking the wort back to the BK so I can finally start the boil that should already be done by now.

Not brewing....may bottle a DIPA tomorrow, if it cools off somewhat. Air's thick enough today to cut with a knife.

 

[Rubberband]

Brewed up a batch of Bee Cave Brewing Robust Porter. Now it's only 8 weeks to drink it. Patients is a virtue.

 

[Beernik]

Just finished a triple bottling day: black currant cyser, dortmunder export, and schwartzweisen.

Marathon Day: I just harvested 40 lb of honey from my second year bee hive (first ever harvest) so started out around 11 am with my first attempt at a mead. That went well so I decided to keep going and did a 10 gal Pale Ale split with two boils at a different hop schedule. The first was 1 oz@60min, 1 oz@20min, 0.50@10min, 0.50@5min, 1.0@flame-out, all Centennial except 0.50 Nugget@60min. The second was about the same, except I used Amarillo @ 5min and 0 min. Unfortunately, I was planning on using a couple lbs of honey near flame-out to boost a batch, but in the heat of the moment (literally, it was at least 100 deg in my garage) I forgot Anyhow, 11 pm and I'm out!

 

[Layne]

Brewed 10 gallons of ED Worts Hause Pale Ale

 

[ClaudiusB]

I am currently brewing a Schwarzbier, should finish around 3:00 AM Sunday morning.
The temp is around 104° F inside the brewery and not going down.
What a hobby


Cheers,

Just finished a Mexican cerveza.....used Whirlfloc for the 1st time (1/2 tab for 5 gal batch)...that stuff is amazing!

 

[SquareHeadBrew]

Made more Aventinus on friday. Yesterday an SS Oatmeal Stout clone, and today it's going to be a Double Chocolate Stout (close to a Young's I guess, but with my own twists). Alot of Brewing for me and I just want more.

 

[sp1365]

Copper Lager today. Just finishing the mash and heading to sparge.

 

[KillerKellers]

Got 10gal of Ed's Bavarian Hefeweizen mashing right now.. hope to get done before I cook to death in my garage!

 

[artyboy]

Making a gallon batch out of the third runnings from yesterday's brew. Probably going to make an American brown.

 

[Whut]

Got 10gal of Ed's Bavarian Hefeweizen mashing right now.. hope to get done before I cook to death in my garage!

No kidding. I wrapped up yesterday right at 12:30p and not a moment to soon.

 

[tobrew]

Getting ready to brew a rainy day IPA..

 

[jeffmeh]

I would have liked to, but I spent a fair amount of the day chopping, sawing, and hauling a bunch of trees that came down in yesterday's storm, lol.

 

[Mermaid]

I was going to brew, even made a starter, but fell down a few stairs and fractured my tibula. I guess no brewing for me for a few weeks.

 

[weirdboy]

Today I made a starter for a bock I'll be making in a few days, and also bottled up a batch of blackberry melomel that I made almost a year ago.

 

[chrislehr]

Was too hot/humid in Austin this weekend for me to get motivated for 3-4 hours outside next to a flame.

Have another Fireman #4 clone to make - this one will be my first attempt at kegging when its out of the primary.

 

[rico567]

Cooled off big time here in Central IL over the weekend. Bottled yesterday, bottling tomorrow...hope to brew an Amarillo Ale Thursday, unless the heat returns.

 

[Homercidal]

Starting to think about the IIPA batch again. It's going to be a week form hell with school ending and drivers training starting and dance recital. But right after that the kids are off and I can have them help out around the house and I can start catching up on the projects I have been wanting to get done, and the hobbies I want to do.

I just don't see this weekend being a brewing weekend. I should plan on brewing next week after work though.

 

[masonsjax]

Im kegging my American Wheat with Amarillo and orange peel this week, so I'll probably brew another wheat to go on the yeast cake. I think I'll do one with either watermelon or a little honey malt this time.

 

[Shooter]

I hope to be brewing a little two gallon extract hefeweizen on the stove, but I have to make time to swing by the LHBS and grab the ingredients.

 

[Ouroboros]

Barleywine with all late hop additions to be brewed tomorrow in celebration of the inevitable US triumph over the brits in the world cup.

 

[Paul_Aris]

About ready to throw my 30 min hop addition in my Irish Red. Mash tun is already cleaned up.

 

[TotemWolf]

Alaskan Brown Bear Porter (Brown Porter).

I'll be brewing in about an hour.

 

[fezzman]

I'm sitting in the garage sweating my butt off...brewing my first AG batch* which is an SNPA clone. Currently mashing.

*brewed AG one other time but at someone else's house with help on his equipment.

 

[goose1873]

too hot...postponed brew day...spending the day in the pool instead

 

[Duffer]

No brewing... but racking Apricot Wit
