Brewed up a nice Wheat with some sweet orange peel at the end of the boil this morning. Pitched it onto about half a cake of US-05 from the batch I bottled up at 6am.

Expecting to start seeing some action in the fermenter in a couple of hours.
 
I just bottled my Whiskely Ale yesterday,finished clean up this morning. Was going to start my 1st IPA today,but it took until a little bit ago to figure out a decent hop schedule to try. I'll git-r-done in the morning,should be about ready to pitch by the time I need to fire up the pit.
 
Just doughed in on my Vienna/Amarillo SMaSH. Smells great in the front yard already. 5 gal batch with 10lbs Vienna. Gonna use 1oz amarillo FWH, 0.5oz 15 min, 0.5 oz 5 min. Then I'll dry hop with another 1.0oz.

At the same time, I have a pork shoulder smoking in the backyard for pulled pork sandwiches tomorrow. So, no matter which door I exit my house from, it smells delicious.
 
Just finished my second batch this weekend

40% adjunct without any problems, God I love my rig :)
 
I took my yeast out of the fridge to warm up while I cook 5lbs of cut red potatoes for a large bowl of tater salad. South western black beans from scratch,& 3 slabs of Memphis style ribs.
I'll be brewing my 1st IPA with 6oz of hops while trying to keep up with prep,cooking,& the bbq pit. Actually a full day of things I like doing! Pit bbq,brewing beer,2 diff hb beers in the fridge too! Maybe even make some corn bread to go with them beans,with their chipotle/adobo sauce goodness.

Sounds like a very good time!!

Man, that must have been some kind of fermentation going on in that bucket!

Just popped the top on the bucket to take a peek and less than twenty four hours after pitching on the yeast cake the krausen has already dropped and the gravity has gone from 1.047 to 1.018.
 
Well,my red potatoes are almost done. Then I can get my starter going,& put the BK on the stove. I'm hoping it doesn't rain. It's not supposed to,but it looks like it could.
I got 3 slabs of ribs going in the pit around 1pm.:rockin::cross:
 
an almost 8 hour, close to 100F brew day today. Done brewing two batches and now I'm having my first beer of the day.
 
Brewed a Foreign Extra Stout yesterday.

47 SRM.

Boy,is that a dark one. I pitched the starter on my IPA after getting an OG of 1.050 @ 6pm. Good thing I rigged a blow off,it's out-gassing pretty hard right now. Cool to have my fermenter stand next to the computer. I get to smell & listen while I'm on here.
I've got 4.5oz of three hops in there too. I'll be dry hoping with 1.5oz more of all three hops. That works out to 1oz hops per gallon of wort. Should be deliciously intense. I got the malt profile close to what Sam at DFH uses for his.
 
7/4/2011 was an epic brew day for me, 10 gallon all grain Belgian Pale Ale, 10 gallon all grain Vanilla Porter, 5 gallon extract kit Belgian Wit. 25 gallons to the fermentors.
 
My pipline is running low, wasnt planing on brewing this weekend, and didnt really have time so I grabed a no-boil muntons wheat beer kit, my first time using one of those, Im planning on adding some raspberry puree to it and make a raspberry wheat. I needed the time to finnish my mashtun, so I can do my munich helles hopfully in the next week or two.
 
I'll be doing my pale ale tomorrow, the last competition beer for this year I think.
 
I am taking Friday off. I am trying to decide whether to brew or road trip 2-3 breweries. That still leaves Saturday to brew. I have people begging for Belgian Wit but I want a Saison and an Octoberfest and a Christmas Beer and . . .
 
It's the weekend somewhere... I think. Maybe in the southern hemisphere? Isn't everything backwards there?

Anyways, brewing my pale ale for competition. I'm hoping to break 40pts in scoring (last version got an average of 38.5 with a 39 and a 38 ). Here goes nothing!
