Looks like that forest fire is heading your way. If you get over there right quick you might be able to smoke some malt! :D Beautifull back yard & view.
I'm finishing up some cleaning after soaking the fermenter & hop socks from last weekend's bottling & brew days. Wanna brew up that 2nd PM Berlin Wheat kit with a couple changes. That'll be 10 gallons of it bottled about a week apart if all goes well.
 
A nice Malty Amber

Brewing an Apricot Wheat. This will be my first wheat brewed as I'm not a huge fan of wheat beers but my wife loves them. Kegging a Blonde Ale and transfering an American Brown Ale to Secondary.
 
Brewed a random IPA yesterday that i designed the recipe in about an hour. Used some summit, willamette and Amarillo (trying to
make space in my hop bank) Not sure what to even call it yet.

Also got a 4 day weekend so I've got WIPA lined up as well if I can find a bung for my better bottle (the one and only LHBS was out...)

wipa???
 
Brewed another 25l of Berliner Weiße because you cannot have too much plus it takes a long time to mature.
OG = 1.035 (too much efficiency! ;) I'll dilute it with 3 liters of water to reach my 3% ABV goal...
 
Tonight I transferred some succulent strawberry blonde to tertiary (yum), and brewed a pm batch of rye pa that missed the og by quite a bit... ingredients for repeating a good white IPA and the strawberry blonde are calling me for this weekend...and maybe bottling either one of the batches of gluten free orange honey ale or some apfelwein... it's gonna be a busy weekend!
 
Brewing a test batch of an Imperial IPA recipe I came up with for a competition in August. 16oz of hops for a 5 gallon batch....yum.
 
I will be brewing an extract peach wheat this weekend to be ready for the 4th!

50 min boil
2 oz. of Tettnanger @ 45min
1 oz. of Goldings @ 5min
7lbs. of breiss wheat LME
2lbs clover honey
1010 Wyeast Wheat yeast packet
Rack on top of Peach puree into secondary at week 2

AND...

I will be bottling my IIPA to sit for about 6mths to 1yr...waaaaayyyy too hoppy!
 
I'm hoping to brew 10 gallons of the WH honey ale, along with 10 gallons of the WH honey porter on Saturday; Depending on weather.
 
Getting up tomorrow at about 5:30 AM to start heating up all my strike water. Doing four batches back to back to back to back. Should be fun, at least I have plenty of friends to help! It's their first time brewing, I'm hoping to get them hooked!
 
American Honey Cream Ale Tomorrow-My first 5 Gallon Batch!
Willamette and Cascade hops instead of Saaz or Mt Hood as many prefer.

May use second runnings for an American Pale Ale-related beer with my new favorite-Summit! I'll steep some crystal 60 if i try it.

Also my first time using White Labs Yeast (WLP080-cream ale blend) and I'm wondering how that will turn out.
The APA will be using Sierra Nevada Pale Ale Yeast.
 
Since I've finally got a pretty good backlog in the pipeline, I can finally brew a beer that can age for a while. I've got a starter stepped up and chugging away to be put into a Barleywine this weekend. All grain #3. planning on a 90 min mash and 90 min boil.
 
Brewing batch #2 of my IPA, also testing out the new kettle which will allow me to sparge better.
 
Brewing my own wheat recipe. I do 1 gallon batches, so here are my numbers:

3:1:1 Wheat:Gambrinus ESB:Maris Otter
Wyeast 3333
1oz. Chinook - bitter (60m)
1/3 Citra (30)
1/3 Citra (15)
1/3 Citra (10)

Sacch rest at 156deg 80m, mash out 170 for 10.

OG:
FG: TBD

I want a limited hop character, which begs the question, "Why on Earth would you even consider Citra?" Answer: I have a lot of it in my freezer.

I'm actually in the boil right now. The real challenge will be if I got my water chemistry right. Won't know until August, I suppose.

I will trade you some willamette for your citra :p

1oz of Chinook in a 1g batch? That's going to be really bitter...
