Going to brew a belgian witbier tomorrow morning. Getting up at 6 am so i do not piss swmbo off!! LOL which is a task all in its self!
 
I am breaking in my new 10-gal mashtun with my house IPA recipe... with a twist. I am using El Dorado as the finishing hops instead of my usual addition of 7C's hops. Looking forward to the results.

So far, no leaks from the mash tun, and the temp was right on target.
 
Just finished up a batch of Punkin Ale clone. I split the batch between Bry 97 and Mangrove Jack's M44 West Coast yeast. I will be doing my final (3rd) batch of pumpkin ale next weekend probably using the bry 97. Pumpkin Ale seems to be a beer I can not brew enough of as everyone asks me for it between bottles and kegs for a few parties. This year it will be going in 500ml Russian River style bottles with orange caps.
 
Outside of pitching a secondary strain into a Barleywine this weekend, didn't brew. Next weekend, bottling a Mild and then repitching into a Milk Stout and English IPA.
 
Brewed 11 gallons of Wyld Ryed Pale Ale on Saturday. Outside. In Florida. In August.
It was only 92* with 90% humidity, and it only rained twice. God I love beer.
 
Alright! It's monday, time to start planning for this weekend! Big day for us, we're doing 4 batches between the 4 of us:

1) IIPA
2) Coconut porter
3) hefe
4) unknown

It's going to be a super long and hectic day for us so we weigh out the hops and grains ahead of time to save time/confusion.
 
Just finished a starter for a Saison I'm doing late tonight, and sanitized one of my kegs for later. I'm also soaking some bottles, so I can bottle a batch of funky blonde later...
 
I've got some Pale Ale Wort chilling as we speak. Though my "weekend" tends to be Mondays and Tuesdays rather than the regular weekend days.
 
Just bought the stuff for Thunderstruck pumpkin and a wild pecan porter, last week I got a Lemon lime hefeweizen bottled, and I have to bottle a Centennial and Nut brown, have to replenish the stockpile!

Thank God I'm not the only one in that boat.
 
Not brewing this weekend but I am buying grains for my next 3 brew days and bottling my English pale ale.
 
Bottled my white ipa yesterday, bottling strawberry blonde right now, and hopefully brewing my bros chile beer tomorrow. We'll see if I have it in me to brew before vacation!
 
Its painfull not to post on this thread for awhile as my vanilla/ginger metheglin sits in my only main bigger-(3 gal) carboy for the 3rd month. But I like to summer break as temps are too high to brew anyway. Next month I may do a (thinkin-blueberry) melomel I think-then Ill brew a little in the winter (still have a nice ageing pipeline),but am really jonesing to make a small batch of my first JAOM also in the meantime. Been seeking out meads and wines more latley trying to broaden my narrow minded craft beer obsession a bit.

Damnit! My bourbon barrel porter kit from NB wont be here til Monday! I guess the oak cubes will just have to soak a little longer...darn :)
 
I'm brewing my Cascade Smash, not sure what day, hoping to start the starter tonight, or tomorrow morning, depends on when my washed yeast comes to room temperature. So probably brewing on Friday.
 
Got my good bud coming over on Saturday to smoke a couple of pounds of MO with some hickory on the grill, then brewing up a hickory smoked nut brown ale. Experimenting is great!
 
Thought I was doing a strawberry/rhubarb ale and a pumpkin ale but Northern is having some kind of issue in their grain room and won't get me my stuff till next week. :I
 
I'm brewing an all mosaic IPA adapted from BCS. Trying out the San Diego super yeast for the first time. My starter smells great. Have really high hopes for this beer. I have been obsessed with theses hops for a while now.
 
We'll be carmelizing lactose and racking a stout onto it and some vanilla beans for the finishing touches on a crème brulee stout.
We'll also be racking (and sampling) a wildflower mead that has been sitting for four months.
