So who's brewing this weekend?

[sweed]

Brewing up my next, full 5 gallon batch, of IIPA called Thors Hammered. It'll come right out at 7.6%. I have my crystal 40 steeping away.

I am shooting for 3 batches this weekend, a Honkers clone, a Scottish 70 for my Dad's retirement party, and my 2012 Christmas beer a Belgian Chocolate Stout. I figure its a 3 day weekend so I should be good time wise. I will also be serving a keg of my pumpkin ale at a party on Saturday.

Just a follow up I was able to get all 3 batches in without any spousal issues! I knocked out the honkers clone Saturday morning, pitched some WLP22 I had laying around. This thing is blowing through the airlock. I then knocked out the Scottish 70 and the Belgian Chocolate Stout today. The out hose on my chiller rested to close against my burner and melted so I had to cut it down and reinstall the hose connection, oops. I am really excited for the Belgian, I added a pound of d180 syrup and I think it will go well with the unsweetened chocolate, plus only 4 hours later its already forming a krausen using WLP575. After a temporay dip in efficiency in my last bunch of batches, which I correctly attributed to my high speed drill/out of whack Cereal Killer grain mill issue, I am now back to 80% efficiency. I started double crushing my grain, I will now readjust the gap to achieve this efficiency.

Gotta wait for momma to get done with the stove to start my PM cascade pale ale. Gunna have to use a small food processor to crush the 5lb of grains on pulse. kinda like when crushing nuts. Shoul;d make for good efficiency though?...

Hopefully if I end up having more time this Sunday, I'm gonna brew my Celebration Ale Clone!

 

[smokinghole]

I was going to take a stab at brewing a pumpkin ale using rye malt, crystal rye and chocolate rye to deepen the color. However I have a full weekend of work....

 

[Barnzy02]

this weekend i'll be dog sitting my brothers two boston terriers along with my dog and attempting to make a Rye Pale Ale.

should be fun.

 

[jeepinjeepin]

Weekends are too busy anymore, especially in the fall. I brewed last night, chilled overnight, and pitched this morning. I still have to scrub everything up.

 

[Homercidal]

Wife said she expected me to brew this weekend. I can't let her down.

Rye Pale Ale on the agenda, but I'm not sure exactly WHEN I'm brewing. I'm shooting for Sat morning if I can get all of my ducks in a row beforehand.

 

[Brewitt]

Planning on my first 20 gallon weekend. Brewing my first Saison with one brew buddy and then my favorite double IPA recipe with another brew buddy. Should be fun.

 

[wesw801]

I should be bottling my first batch of a blonde ale this weekend! I can't wait!! I'm so excited!!

 

[ICWiener]

Oud Bruin tomorrow night! Wooot!

Funky Saison with Brett C on Sunday! Double woot!

 

[Tarks]

11 Gal of oatmeal stout on Saturday. Probably my last brew of the year.

 

[Devin]

Planning an all-Simcoe IPA on Sunday. WLP007 starter tomorrow.

 

[Piratwolf]

Sculpin IPA clone on Sunday: mmmmmm!

 

[Whippy]

I am going to try very hard to brew twice this weekend, U507 American Schwarzbier tonight and one of the following three on Sunday, depending on what yeast LHBS has:

-242 Sqn. Ale (Belgian Dark Strong)
-Alcoa Puritan ESB
-Doncaster Brown Ale

I have not brewed in a month, and that beer was dumped so I must make up for lost time!

 

[jwaldman11]

I'm bottling my fourth batch, a Rogue Dead Guy clone. The samples I've taken for hydrometer readings have tasted very good so far. Fingers crossed that the beer tastes just as good!

 

[JeepDiver]

Bottled my oatmeal stout today. Going to GABF tommorow for ideas for next brew

 

[Beer_is_good_for_you]

Mashing my Christmas beer right now. This is the 3rd time I've made it, but the first time doing all-grain.

Finally brewing my first attempt at a Belgian Tripel this weekend - calling it Tripel Entendre. It is made up of about 8 lbs of light & amber DME left over from a shopping trip, 1.5 lbs of cane sucrose candi-fied (converted to invert sugar), some mild hops, and a starter of WPL500 that I just cold-crashed in the fridge on Tuesday. It will need to age so probably won't be ready by xmas. Guess I'll have to brew something else in the meantime after this.

 

[mjdonnelly68]

Brewing my Charlie Brown Ale recipe for a friends post-Thanksgiving Turducken party.

Brewing my first porter. Doing a partial mash; had to add some heat once so far. I'll be doing a late addition of NB's Maris Otter extract. And my starter of Wyeast 1388 West Yorkshire Ale is ready to go.

I'm calling it Back to School Porter. I am back in school pursuing a master's degree (finally), and put together this recipe on the first day of classes. It should be ready to enjoy right around finals week.
