So who's brewing this weekend?

[truckndad]

This morning I bottle the Dunkel and cleaned everything off. After the oxyclean soak it's all drying now and tomorrow morning I'll be re-filling the fermenter with the Apocolypso I got from AHS.

 

[theveganbrewer]

Had to change brew plans and will be doing Jamil's Amber Red Ale and my Vanilla Bourbon on Monday. Couldn't find vanilla beans in stock in 3 grocery stores and ended up buying them online. 8 for 8.75 I believe, off myspicesage.com.

deciding between a saison and a flanders red to do sunday

Next weekend getting some marris otter,golden promise, getting the same hops with the same crystal malts and same yeast and comparing the two base malts.Sounds like a good plan. I have a bunch of crystal malts left so im making ipa's and seeing what base malts do with the same recipes for ipa's.Plus im trying liquid yeast for the first time doing a double small brew2/3 of a 5 gallon batch roughly 3 ish gallons with two differnt beers.
I havnt brewed in like a month,im pumped. My last few all grain brews have really inspired me to continue making good beer that my last brews have turned out so good.I was going to take a break but hell no,i still got crystal malts sittin.

Tomorrow my friend and I are having a double header, Moose Drool for me, and Yeungling's porter for him. Should be a fun time rather than doing homework.

I want to try to make my own recipe, I'm thinking a pale ale. Not sure yet, though.

 

[elproducto]

Brewing Classic Styles Smoked Porter today, and probably Lake Walk PA tomorrow.

Trying to do a double today/this weekend. Up first is a Nut Brown Ale based on a Samuel Smith clone but with some modifications. Second is TBD, trying to decide between a Marris Otter/Fuggles/s-04 SMaSH and some sort of IPA that doesn't require Centennial (out of it) (e.g. Mojo IPA clone).

copyright, my brewday looks eerily similar.

Barring fatigue (or late afternoon booze-brain) I'm looking at doing 2 batches today too. First up is a 10 gal summit/warrior IPA followed by some sort of big, dark malty English ale w/ MO (& some home toasted MO), Fuggles, EKG

cheers

 

[Bradinator]

Just mashed in my (hopefully, the beer gods willing) the most extremely red ale I have ever brewed.

 

[cabron99]

Going for my 3rd batch of Arrogant Bastard clone this morning. All grain. Have decided to keep to AB until I get what I think it should be. Learning, refining procedures, and drinking ever improving brew. More friends are starting to come by. Good sign

 

[tdogg]

[Brewenstein]

Brewed an American Brown today. My own recipe.

8.5 lbs. 2 row
.5 lb. victory
.5 lb. pale chocolate
.5 lb. crystal 15
.5 lb. crystal 120

1 oz. cascade at 60 min
.5 oz. cascade at 15 min

OG 1.051
35 IBUs

US-05 slurry from last brew

My first attempt with no sparge brewing. Hit 70% eff. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Haven't found a brown recipe I like yet, crossing my fingers .

 

[unionrdr]

My wife will be bottling her second ever batch,her summer ale tomorrow. That'll be another 6G ready for Christmas.

 

[Ceetar]

Attempting a Kona Koko nut inspired Toasted Coconut Brown Ale. Boiling now. Still working on a good name.

 

[unionrdr]

Loco in da coco ale. I remember this old 78rpm record mom had. Loco moco in the coco...I'm crazy in the head,for you this girl sang...& they say our songs made no sense...

 

[ChillWill]

Had a long day. Brewed an all grain stout and hit 1.095 og, 90min mash, boiled sparge for an hour, added mash water and did a further 90mins and hit it with a load of chinook. Wanted 1.100+ but not quite there yet it would appear! Think I need a finer crush or double mash.

Anyway its had some s04 slurry from an arrogant bastard clone that I racked off to dry hop. Plenty of oxygen (will give it some more tomorrow am) and some nutrient... even though I found out you don't actually need yeast nutrient as the malt provides all it needs (apart from zinc sometimes as that often leaves with the trub).

Hitting it with some candi sugar in a couple of days. Maybe some more nutrient and dextrose. Want 12% if possible and near 1.020 fg.

 

[sonex]

just finished brewing 10 gal of a amarillo simcoe IPA. love that hop combo.

 

[Im_Lars]

Just started the mash for a batch of cream ale

 

[jmlabeck]

This afternoon (Sunday) I'm doing a partial-mash India Black Ale. In 23 years, this is the hoppiest beer I've ever made. My software says to expect 83 IBU!!

 

[MeatyPortion]

In the process of brewing up an experimental batch of Red Fang Red Ale. Had a stuck sparge but got the pre-boil volume I needed. We'll see how this turns out.

[SteveBrewSD]

Just mashed in! IPA with Nugget, Magnum, and Cascade hops. Odd combo but there was slim pickings at my LHBS and I wanted to experiment

 

[jeepinjeepin]

I'm getting a late start on a west coast red ale.

 

[rmullins]

Finished up the cybi arrogant bastard (with some hop modifications due to my poor inventorying)

 

[daddysu]

My buddies and brewed up ten gallons of AHS Cream Ale. Modified the recipe a bit to account for my FIRST full boil. Woot! Also did my first yeast starters which caused the most vigorous fermentation I have seen even just after 3 or so hours. I had to put in my first blow of tubes as well to prevent my first fermenter explosion! It was a weekend of firsts as you can tell. I can't wait to start the next batch!

 

[Paul07293]

6 gallons of oatmeal stout based on Yooper's recipe. Modifications: I toasted the oats @ 300F for 30 minutes to try to bring out some nutty oat flavor and upped the Victory .25lbs for a bit more bready character.

 

[sacrifice]

Just finished 5.5 gals of a breakfast stout trying to use all of my misc grains.

 

[timdsmith72]

Bottled my Chocolate Oatmeal stout this weekend. Also, Racked my cranberry wheat onto ~4.5 lbs of fresh cranberries.

 

[jtkratzer]

Definitely brewing something. I'm thinking about the vanilla bourbon porter or similar.

 

[EO74]

"1880" boston lager from homebrewing adventures!

 

[ArcaneXor]

Hoping to finally get around to brewing an amber lager on Thursday before the festivities.
