Mashed in at 7:15 am trying to get done before it gets too hot today. Supposed to hit 100 here today. About to start my sparge on 10 gallons of my Last Chance Light Ale soon. I'm hoping to be done and cleaned up before it gets to 90.
 
Doing a partial mash, breakfast stout tonight. Probably start around 7 or 8 eastern time. It will be my first partial mash. Before now I've steeped only a pound or so of specialty grains. Gonna do 9 lbs tonight. Pretty excited.
 
Just mashed in on a pretty big robust porter. 15 lbs grain bill for 5 gallons. I should have started earlier but I couldn't get my lazy ass out of bed before 9 am. Oh well, hit my mash temp and it smells amazing in my garage.

I plan on brewing an all Columbus IPA on Sunday:mug:

Love Columbus. I've seen that it is either love or hate that one. Not sure what turned me on to it. When I was pro, I would pull a carboy of our regular pale after crash and dry hop it with columbus. Though the dry hop was the only deviation, you couldn't convince others that it wad the same basic ale.

bottling my 5 gallons of pumpkin ale !!! i need to start kegging, so i can force carbonate and enjoy this week a week later instead of 4 weeks later !!
 
Cooled, pitched yeast, and in the closet. My hydrometer fell off my table and broke so I couldnt get any readings. Cant wait to get this in a keg though, it smelled amazing.
 
Im brewing 12 gallons of a Bitburger clone. This will be my first Lager/pilsner. I plan on using my new 15.5 gallon fermenter (see build) https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/my-sankey-fermenter-build-340162/

I then plan on using this yeast cake for 12 gallons of Oktoberfest in about three weeks. I know its late in the year for an O fest, but is there really a wrong time to drink one... I didn't think so.
 
A friend of mine and I just started brewing and we have the mr. Beer kit. ( I know it's lame) we plan on making some Mexican cerveza this weekend. Saving up to get a large brew setup.
 
Good luck, Obeesbrew!! Congratulations on the new start :) There is nothing "lame" about brewing, no matter WHAT method you use!
 
A fresh new batch of Regiment von Ditfurth Dunkelweizen is mashing right now!! This is my revised recipe while I strive for "perfection."

5# wheat
3# munich
3oz roasted barley
2oz chocolate
13 IBUs Spalt Select
WLP300 pitched straight from the vial....no time for a starter.

Mash temp is 153F

Tell us about that oatmeal stout recipe!

It's a kit extraction :-( from Midwest brewing. Not quite up to all grain yet.... By winter I'll be fully committed.

Just finished my breakfast stout. Came in at 1.080 but only a little over 4 gallons. I gotta get a cooler mash in.

I just finished a Breakfast Stout too, my 2nd all-grain (yesterday was my first). Mine was 1.041, was supposed to be 1.033, though.
 
I'll be brewing an Irish Red first thing tomorrow morn. Though that breakfast stout is making me think. Mmmm stout.
 
Brewing a Blonde today. First time using my Barley Crusher. Spilled about 1/2 lb of grain when I cranked too hard and the mill fell off my bucket. I am hoping I get better efficiency to make up for my clumsiness.
 
Finally done. Double brew day that I didn't overlap. I could have, but having to babysit the chiller during cast in these hot months is a pain in the arse. Mashing in during cast woulda been a train wreck for both.

SMaSH brews, one Columbus, one Willamette. Same hop schedules and amounts. Both 10 lbs Maris Otter. Got my best efficiencies ever and the gravities were 1.064 and 1.065 for 5 gallons in primary. Gets me about 85%.

Very happy that the original gravities were so close, as this is an experiment in what one ingredient contributes to the beer. 13.9% Columbus and 4.7% Willamette will make 2 very different beers.
 
I'm currently brewing a new iteration if my Rye God, Rye?
Yesterday I brewed a heffeweizen with my sister, which its fermenting away happily

Yeah I'm kinda on the fence with it, so that's what I'm trying to figure out with this brew. We'll find out in 4 weeks.:mug:
 
Pumpkin ale and a 1 gallon red wine yesterday. Right now, I'm brewing an Ale for christmas (if it makes it that long (-: )
