Doing my first AG batch tomorrow!!! :tank:

I'm doing a clone of Pacific Rim Brewing Co's. (now closed) Ring of Fire! I'm stoked. I'm not a huge fan of pepper beers, but this one was worth the hour drive at the time!
I was able to track down the head brewer, and he sent me an awesome email telling me how they brewed it!

:mug:
 
Brewing my third batch today a True Brew All Malt Porter kit. Lots of chocolate malt in this one. Quick question it's telling me to pitch the yeast at 90 degrees instead of 70 like I have done in the past does that seem a bit high?

You are correct, don't pitch at 90
 
Waiting on a few ingredients to get here. UPS says they should be delivered tomorrow. Plan on doing my first partial mash with 6lbs of grain and 2.75 lbs of DME tomorrow.

I am trying Thunderworm's American Wheat recipe, but I will be using White Labs 320 American Wheat Yeast instead of the Kolsch. Really excited to try this.
 
Brewed the Rastafar-Rye yesterday. The yeast starter is about ready and the wort is at a nice stable temperature after a night in the brew closet. Only thing to do today (besides a poker game tonight) is take a gravity reading and pitch the yeast!
 
550 pm Is still the weekend in North Cackalacky. I'm just about to start the AHS Apocalypso all grain.
 
Brewin now *******! Making a porter for SWMBO. Otherwise it woulda been another Belgian.

I want to know how cold you guys will brew in? Its 30 and dropping fast as the sun goes down, but I grew up in Minnesota so I'm worried if this is too hot and will ruin my batch of beer?! Plus, I'm still working out the kinks on my gear and overshot my volume, so long boil for me.
 
Just finished brewing a Deschutes Mirror Pond clone. My first partial mash. Definitely a good learning experience.

Now I just want to build a mash tun that much more.
 
Same as me on the mirror pond clone! Mash tun is in my future as well. Although many lessons in brewing can be learned in biab I'm sure. Looking forward to the finished beer and more technical process, cheers!
 
I'm just about to hit flameout on my Irish Red. Started at 8pm and it's not even 11pm. Going real well. Should be done by midnight.

+1 to Mirror Pond. Your post makes me want to brew this tomorrow, but I already have three batches in primaries, so where can I put it!
 
eBIAB'd and just filled a no chill cube with some house ale:

8 lbs Rahr 2 row
2 lbs Crystal 20
1 lb Carapils
1.75 oz East Kent Golding

Should be a nice 65 degrees tomorrow when I pitch some Notty.
 
Dry hoping my two hearted clone and brewing an American stout Wednesday, followed by an American amber Thursday.

The wife is out of town for a couple of days so I'm cranking the beer out while I can.
 
3gal of West Coast Imperial Red and 6gal of Lil Sumpin Sumpin clone planned for next Monday (got the day off!).
