Brewing up a 10g batch of Rye IPA (Biermunchers?) and 10g of Black Pearl Porter which is a repeat brew. Very excited about it. Might wash some WLP001 while I'm at it.

Nice, I have that one on my list. I did the Fixed Gear clone from NB (using my own ingredients) and it was good.

I did a double brew day today (first time ever), just wrapping up and turned on the hockey game I DVR'd at 7PM.

I did an blue moon'ish wit, with a combination of 2 row, vienna, flaked wheat, malted wheat.

Followed that up with DeathBrewer's Vienna SMaSH (with Northern Brewer hops).

Yesterday my homebrewclub had our Christmas party at Santa Fe Brewing Co. The brewery hosted a potluck for us and also let anyone who wanted to brew. We all brought our stuff down and did a brew kind of like big brew day. I made 10 gallons of Foreign Extra Stout. When it's done in primary, I'm going to split it into two, five gallon batches. I'm going to leave one as is, and put pureed cherries in a secondary for the other. Once the cherries are done fermenting I'm going to put in on cacoa nibs in tertiary. Hoping the Chocolate Cherry Stout will be mellowed out and ready to drink for Valentine's Day.

My weekend is Sunday and Monday. I'm brewing a Railbender Clone from Erie Brewing. I couldn't find a recipe anywhere so I e-mailed the brewery and they sent me the exact recipe for a 5 gal batch! Those guys are awesome!

Hello Justin,

Can you post the recipe you received from Erie for their Railbender?

 

[Qhrumphf]

I'll be swinging by the LHBS on the way home from work tonight, gonna finally get around to doing a wit this weekend. And I'll throw together some spiced hard cider while I'm at it.

I think I'll try making a small batch of Graff.

 

[bighorn_brew]

Doing my second BIAB and doin a Roggenbier with wyeast 3638, then turning around and hopefully kegging my sticke-altbier. Or maybe I should switch that around so I have some beer on hand while brewing....

 

[BoundForBeer]

2 rauchbiers....just got a freezer chest for a xmass present for myself. So now my fermentor fridge doesnt have to be taken up for 2 months or so while lagering.

I'm thinking about doing a Saison soon. I'm wondering if wrapping the fermenter in a blanket and setting it on a heating vent would give me the temps I need.

Depending on the heat vent, it certainly might. Last summer, I used a far more ghetto but effective approach: put the fermenter in a guest bedroom, wrapped it in a down blanket and then a heavy fleece jacket, put a few lamps in the room w/ 100 W incandescent bulbs and no shades, put a towel under the door, room got up to about 90 and the fermenter about 85 or so, IIRC.

That's similar to my plan if I try one in the summer. Towel under the door, wrapped in a blanket, windows open at night and maybe closed during the day.
