So who's brewing this weekend?

[Slowfro]

I am going to try to find time to brew a brown ale, and I'll be bottling the ESB I brewed in early July.

 

[troyh]

I was hoping to brew a Fuller's ESB clone on my new Blichmann burner this weekend but my bulk grains, supposed to arrive today, missed the train in Montana and it looks like they won't be here until Monday. One of my goals in graduating to all-grain is to make the perfect Fuller's ESB a little more perfect for me.

I am going to be brewing a smoked porter, a pumpkin ale, and an american amber

 

[Brewitt]

Brewing a Belgian Dark Strong Ale with homemade dark candi syrup. Siphoning off 1 gallon during boil, diluting by about 40%, and pitching with WLP530 and stepped up dregs from a Oud Beersel Oude Kriek. The other 6 gallons gets WLP530 alone. My first sour (well, intentional, that is) and my first BDSA. Should be fun.

 

[Korwen]

I'm going to be brewing my first batch this weekend, an American Amber Ale partial mash. I should have all my ducks in a row for this to go off, but I'm sure something will come up.

I think the best piece of advice the guy at my local homebrew store gave me will probably be to write everything down, document everything for every batch so I can track what worked/didn't work.

 

[BrotherGrim]

I have an Austin Homebrew Supply all grain kit hitting the kettle in the morning! I have my starter kicking and a few brew buddies coming over for the event.

 

[Apple_Jacker]

I just started a 1 gallon test batch of cider using Nottingham ale yeast a couple of days ago. I have 4 brews going on right now haha. Once my skeeter pee is done, I will do a 5 gallon batch of cider, or try another beer kit.

 

[Yankeehillbrewer]

Black IPA

 

[koopa]

Brewing my 40th batch tomorrow and figured I'd go with a 10 gallon batch that has 40 pounds of fermentables in it! Maple Imperial Stout that may be destined for some type of wood aging down the road.

 

[lumpher]

newcastle old ale hitting the cooker tomorrow

 

[Guden]

Bottling two batches Saturday and hopefully brewing a Sofie inspired brett beer on Sunday.

 

[signpost]

Brewing up a simple Belgian Dubbel this afternoon.

Transferring a Belgian Dark Strong Ale to secondary.

Pitching the Dubbel on top of part of the yeast cake left from the BDSA.

Should have some friends around to make it an even more enjoyable day.

 

[Spartan1979]

I brewed a Sticke yesterday. O.G. 1.061 ( missed by .002) and about 58 IBU's.

 

[bscott1011]

10 minutes into the boil on my house brown

 

[BeardedIdiot]

Going to be brewing a Franziskaner Hefeweizen clone recipe I got off of here. Got the hops a yeast warming up now.

 

[TonyR]

Brewing a wheat ale right now for a family reunion at the end of the month.

 

[Pilgarlic]

Wit and Southern English Brown. Finished up by 1:30.

 

[pohldogg]

10 gallon batch of brett c saison. Half will most likely go on dates.

 

[Apple_Jacker]

Just finished getting another 1 gallon batch of cider going. Using 1 gallon of apple juice, 12 oz. Clover honey, and premier cuvee yeast.

 

[Barnstormer]

I brewed my summer wheat today. I was a little disappointed though. My boil off rate was higher than usual so I had to top off with about a quart of water. I'm sure it will still be delicious though.

 

[BeardedIdiot]

Got my hefe batch brewed! The biggest thing I learned? I need to get my keg cut for a boil pot, and I need to buy a damn NG or propane burner. Using a 3gal pot on an electric stove sucks balls....

 

[Genuine]

I got everything all set to brew NB's all grain smashing pumpkin ale tomorrow. Also have 60oz of pumpkin to use in the mash. Excited!

 

[jafo28]

Just started the mash on an Octoberfest. I know it's quite late to be brewing it, but this is the first opportunity i've had to brew in a while. It's only my second lager, but I learned a lot from the last one. Made a huge starter earlier in the week, and i've got the fermentation chamber ready to go.

 

[schmidty65]

5 gallons of Cream Ale are brewing right now. And Saison is heading to secondary.

 

[toboredtosleep]

Finished up a Maharaja clone yesterday and a potential for a belgian blonde this afternoon.

 

[Genuine]

Just finished up brewing NB's Smashing Pumpkin Ale, pitched the yeast and now it's in the fermenter. I'll let it ferment out for 8 days or so and check gravity. OG ended up ebing 1.060. Used 60oz of baked pumpkin with a bit of brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice in the mash. Here's some photos from today:

Super happy with the color so far and it smelled amazing in the mash tun. It was very pumpkin like for the first runnings so I have high hopes for this one!

 

[Guden]

Brewed up a wheat saison with Brett, should be interesting to see what flavors the white labs farmhouse ale blend gives off.

 

[corkybstewart]

Didn't get to brew this weekend but I just got 10 gallons of kolsch into the fermentor. It was a great brewing session until I turned my pump on to recirculate the wort through a CFC back to the kettle. Nothing happened, the pump is dead. So I had to find, rewire and sanitize my old March pump. Wasted close to an hour but finally got it into the fermentor at 58F.

 

[bengerman]

Hopefully brewing another batch of the ProtoPorter this weekend. Was too busy, then too hungover last weekend.

 

[troyh]

I'm in the last few minutes of the boil for my Fuller's ESB clone that I didn't get to this weekend.
