So who's brewing this weekend?

[lumpher]

got everything for a hop stoopid clone set up and ready for tomorrow

 

[Billy-Klubb]

I will be tomorrow.

 

[Yellowirenut]

I hope to be outside brewing a cream ale Sunday morning as the sun rises.

Me and the Lord have had a few talks threw my life. (had two very close calls with death) I am understanding he would rather me take the day and enjoy his work and reflect on what he has created.

[Brigadoon]

I hope to start some yeast for a Belgian Strong Ale tomorrow. Something to mollify the pangs of stacking firewood several weeks from now...

 

[Chug]

Brewed up a Surly Furious clone today. Excited, I am

 

[wermode]

Got my weekend started early: racked a porter to secondary and brewed a variation on an American Brown Ale. My 2013 motto: "no empty carboys"...

 

[Billy-Klubb]

I decided on an IPA. Magnum for bittering & Zythos for all other additions.

 

[Whut]

21 minutes left in the mash of some blonde ale. Think I'll dry habanero half of it again.

 

[user 30639]

Just started steeping the grains for my mango habanero IPA

 

[Shack01]

Well, it's about 35 degrees here today, but it's been warm enough for the past few days that the garden hose isn't froze up anymore (for wort chilling), so the first brew session of the new year is underway!

None too soon either, the pipeline ran dry at the beginning of the month!

 

[mjdonnelly68]

Planning a sunup brewing session Sunday - Bohemian Czech Pilsner. Fermented and lagered to be ready for lawnmower season.

I'm with you brother - my hose finally unfroze!

 

[govner1]

Just finished a batch of Much Better Amber. Hit the OG dead on at 1.056. Oxygenated & pitch w/ WY1056 @ 64F.

 

[tracyk]

Not really brewing but working on bottling up some Honey Cream Ale and moving my Trappist Ale to a secondary to free up some space. Also need to back sweeten my skeeter pee for bottling.

 

[jerryteague]

Brewing a lemon-lime blonde ale. It's a beautiful 67 degrees here in Tulsa, so I'm making the most of it before I have to start getting ready for work at stupid o'clock in the morning...
Edit: just finished brewing. I wish I had more fermenters, because I want to brew another batch now. Oh well, maybe I can brew again when I get some more fermenters next week...

 

[conneryis007]

5 gallons of a Wee Oatmeal Stout....a SG 1.032 session stout!!

 

[dbj1515]

Porter is one of my favorites. I have brewed a couple of variations... one with a pound of orange blossom honey added the end of boil.

Hope this turns out well for you.

 

[mizzourah2006]

Just finished 5 gallons of Yooper's Pale Ale. I'm excited to see how it turns out, we hit pretty much everything perfectly, so here's hoping for the best.

 

[Billy-Klubb]

I ended up about half gallon over projected, but my efficiency was right on as estimated. now I just need to brew more to make up for all those years I should have been brewing AG.

 

[bmorosco]

IPA most likely

 

[CreamyGoodness]

I just put a pot of carrots on the burner for a gallon of JeremyCT's carrot wine!

 

[Snisup]

Brewing a classic German Pils (my first lagwr) if I have some time tomorrow.

 

[masskrug]

Tried to brew a Lil' Sumpin' Sumpin'. My numbers came in a bit low, but I made beer. The SG was tasty, the OG was a bit bitter, but I don't use muslin hop bags. See you in 3 weeks.

 

[Whippy]

Recipe please? Interesting using Bravo

Hi bellmtbbq, sorry to just be getting back with you.

12# 2-row
1# C-80
1# corn sugar
2oz Summit @60 min for 93.8 IBU
1oz Bravo for 15 min for 24 IBU
1oz Bravo for 1 min 2 IBU

mash at 156F for 60 minutes

dry hop with Bravo (probably 2 oz) for 7 days or so

I have used Summit for bittering and bravo for flavor/aroma before in an American Barleywine and it came out really good, won 3rd place in competition....used them in an IPA before as well. The two hops work good together in that combination. I would NOT recommend using them the other way around, though, (bravo for bittering and Summit for flavor/aroma) because Summit is just nasty unless used as a bittering hop LOL

 

[GrogNerd]

quick 1-gallon batch of some LME, Fuggles & S-33 to determine if my tap water is OK for brewing

it's OK out of the tap, but make lemonade or coffee with it and it tastes like feet and ass

been brewing with Deer Park and filtered tap so far & don't want to waste a full batch if the water is no good

 

[jerbrew]

A west coast style red ale.

 

[copyright1997]

I went a few months without brewing. Some of which due to having a sh_t load of stuff previously brewed, some what due to buying a couple 1/6 kegs cheap ($27 for Widmer Citra Blonde and $27 for Widmer Drifter Pale Ale), but mostly because of laziness. I did brew once during those months, SN Pale Ale, but I let it sit so long in the primary that it got mold/infection (first time ever)...think it was because the air lock no longer provided an air lock.

Finally got off my butt and started brewing. First couple, to get a quick pipeline: Two weeks ago, a blue moon clone. Early this week Cream of three crops, which I also hope to use for some dry hop testing. Today was a double brew day, first a Maris Otter Red Ale IPA followed by a Victory Hop Devil Clone.

It feels good to get back in the swing of things...

 

[Cyclman]

5G Extract Apricot Blonde.

 

[pumpkinman2012]

3 days, 3 brews! All of them 5 gallon All grain brews.
Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale
Imperial Irish Ale
Shock Top Clone

 

[ColeR]

DONE!!!! finished a copperhook clone, AG 92.6% eff. that feels good. now in to the ferm chamber... and 2 weeks later, i hope beer..

 

[Komocabo]

I taught my uncle how to do AG. First time doing a batch sparge and we hit all of our numbers on the dot! (not a bad intro, eh?). Ended up with almost 2 extra gallons, so we brewed that up too... different hops, different gravity... should be cool to see if the end of the second runnings make something delicious. I have high hopes

 

[catdaddy66]

I'm hoping to brew my final kit, an Irish stout on Easter. Have a good friend coming for dinner and want to impress. That's hard to do as he is more experienced than me...

 

[TechMiller]

I am in the middle of brewing a modified version of the Honey Chamomile Wheat that is in the recipe list. This is my second time brewing this and my second time brewing AG.

 

[johnbrew]

Did 5 gal batch speckeled heifer not a kit went and bought 10 batch supply so much cheaper.

 

[stikks]

Just finished up 6 gal. Honey Wheat Ale

Cheers

 

[joety]

Just finished cleaning up after brewing 10 gallons of Kern River Citra DIPA Clone. Undershot my gravity and wound up at 1.064 vs 1.070 so it's no longer a DIPA. Hydrometer samples tasted fantastic. There is already activity in the airlock.

 

[drakerebel]

Have 5 ga. of India brown ale with first time cake reuse...and its working/bubbling away...sa-weet

 

[woknblues]

If we are counting tomorrow as the weekend (it's my weekend), I am brewing 6.5 gallons of this stout.

 

[Cgreen042389]

Doing my first 15 gal tomorrow, just a simple saison... It goes to fast this time of year
