So who's brewing this weekend?

[eppo]

Brewing my 2012 oktoberfest.

 

[snccoulter]

Helping brew a all grain today. a learning experience for me.

 

[jsharp3]

Boiling Yooper's Cream Ale now. Thx Yooper!!

 

[DrewBrew08]

First batch has begun!!! I'm pumped!!!! One problem though, I've watched videos and read billions of threads and one thing I keep reading is you must have a homebrew, while you home brew. Since this is my first batch I don't have any.

So the question is..... Which came first, the home brew or the home brewer ?

 

[jsv1204]

left-over grain "Frankenbeer" in the mash tun now...

 

[nrock74]

Heating the strike water for my 1st 10 gallon batch, my favorite summer session brew, a spotted cow clone.

 

[Grumpybumpy]

Mashing a fwh marris otter/chinook SMaSH right now so I can compare to the amarillo SMaSH I made last weekend.

 

[pkincaid]

left-over grain "Frankenbeer" in the mash tun now...

Same here...I just put the lid on the mash tun.

2lbs of Caramel 60L
4 lbs of Pale Malt
1lb of minute rice....

we shall see....now to determine the hop profile.

 

[jsv1204]

2 lbs US 2-row
2 lbs wheat
1/2 60L Crystal
3 lbs Muntons Amber DME

I am going with 1 oz Northen at 45 min and 1/2 oz Cascade at 15 min with Lallemand Windsor yeast. Figure I'll end up with a kolsh/bitter hybrid!

Just cleaned up from my first double brew day. I did a pale ale, 4.5% abv, with loads of late citra additions. Its also my first time using WLP007, just looking to change it from 1056. I then did a brown ale with a pound of chocolate rye malt, 1/2 pound of flaked rye, and marris otter as a base. I am shooting for a bready, pumpernickel like beer for fall. This will be my test batch and I am splitting it between wlp002 and wlp028.

 

[kbuzz]

Brewing a Nut Brown tomorrow morning...can't wait.

 

[Canucklehead]

Brew day got pushed up a week due to a corny going empty, so tomorrow is an English mild.

 

[ChillWill]

Practice run on dark candi sugar, seemed to go well, tasted nice.

Going to take some into work and test fermentability on the stir plate.

Black IPA bright and early tomorrow.

 

[jonmohno]

Black Ipa going on tomarrow at the ripoff time of early day also.Who decided to change time and add days to the year anyway? And why is the world not flat like it should be? And why cant i find a new cell phone battery anywhere?

 

[Grumpybumpy]

If the world were flat, I'd live on the edge for sweet low and tangential gravity...if it worked that way

 

[mrgstiffler]

Brewing up a half batch of Widmer's X-114 right now. Really looking forward to seeing how close it is. Should at least be decent since it's a scaled version of the actual recipe.

 

[spearko520]

[biochemedic]

Sittin' here babying a (extremely full for my kettle) 90 min boil for my caramel quad...birds singing, it's crisp, cool and sunny out, cup of coffee in hand...really doesn't get much better...

 

[jvh261]

Woke up to a nice steady fermentation on the Evil Twin (Hopbursted Red Ale) I brewed yesterday. I've gotten 3 brew days in over the last 4 weekends. For Feb/March in the Chicago area this is beyond awesome.

 

[tochsner]

Stoke water is heating for my first stout I am brewing for the www.flyingbike.coop member brew contest. I didn't like losing an hour last night but this seems to be making me feel better.
Good morning to you all.

 

[Shooter]

Brewed a foreign extra stout yesterday. I checked it this morning and krausen is already forming.

 

[zilch]

Brewed Reapers Mild yesterday afternoon. Pitching yeast today

[29thfloor]

Double Wit on Sunday

 

[Nightbiker]

Just put 10 gallons of a lawnmower ale to bed. Sealed the fermenter late yesterday evening, and its bubbling away happily right now. I hopped it (all but the bittering hops) with hops from last years' hopyard harvest. Not sure if I'm going to be growing them this year (waiting to see what sprouts up) -its a real hassle in the Florida heat. Providing 10 of this, and 10 of BYOs' Brewhouse Brown Ale clone. Next up will be a strong Belgian Blond Ale.
ahhh, I can taste it already!

 

[Duckbrew]

Pot? Check. Buckets Clean? Check. 4 Free hours to brew? ....Oh Yeah!!! Making a Kolsch for the first time.

 

[DannPM]

I'm making cheese, fromage blanc, easy direct set culture!

 

[rich32501]

Its getting warm in chicago and I'm losing the temp in the basement slowly so I'm doing a ten gallon batch of pale ale and a ten gallon batch of gumball clone.
