So who's brewing this weekend?

[AsgardNorth]

Not quite the weekend, but come Monday I will be brewing a 2 1/2 gallon batch of Irish Stout and 2 1/2 gallons of English Pale ale to make what I am calling "Brothers in Arms". Intended to be drunk as a Black and Tan.

Monday would have been my twins 7th birthday. Every year I struggle, especially since the divorce and split time with my other son (5 years old). I am hoping that brewing these beers will serve me and them well.

Anything to keep my head on right at this time of year.

If time allows this weekend I hope to do a 1 gallon BIAB... my first.

Bottling widow maker cline this weekend and reusing the cake for C3C. Also might have a noob come over to brew an ESB (common room).

Need to figure out what is next on the list to get ahead of my pipeline. Thinking about Yooper's ruination clone and the same except using citra instead of centennial. Basically a hop experiment for my hop head buddies.

I am brewing a German Alt this weekend as a suitable sub for May Day due to no lagering capability.

I would have brewed my Oktoberfest batch for, well.... October today. But for some reason spring has been cancelled, and we had blizzard conditions, high winds and school was cancelled. Tomorrow I have to use my snow blower again, and it's practically April! Ugh!

 

[Terek]

Gonna be transferring 2 gal of cider to secondary and splitting them. Leaving one strait apple juice, and the other.....well......the other is getting some lil cutie oranges I soaked in crown royal the last week. Then poring more juice onto the yeast cake for the next 2 gal.
THEN......I'm gonna brew an oat stout that I might split and add peanut butter to one.....mabe

Assuming our floors get done tomorrow (putting in hardwood!) and everything gets moved back into place, I'm going to brew my ESB Saturday.

 

[Melana]

This girl's brewing an IPA on saturday. WOOHOO! I love spring!

 

[solbes]

Hardly brewed since late October this year, its just been too cold. Luckily I had a lot of aged bottles ready for consumption to bring us to spring. I hope to complete my DIY stirplate tonight and get my yeast re-energized for a Dunkel this weekend.

 

[kcmobrewer]

Zythos IPA

 

[dstranger99]

Doing a PM Guinness style Stout on Saturday.....

 

[NathPowe]

Planning to brew up a saison on Sunday morning. I like to bottle a batch of saison in spring so I have a couple cases to drink throughout the summer. It's not a style I enjoy enough to put on the taps, but it's great having some around when the mood strikes. Anyway, should be fun as I've finally gotten my new brewery set up out in my workshop/mancave.

Also my first brew with our new dog, Walter. Bring on the Lebowski quotes.

Doing an ipa on Saturday and attempting the vanilla porter I have been meaning to make the last 3 weekends on sunday. Told my wife to not make any plans cause I'm brewing and smoking meat all weekend

 

[wingedcoyote]

Brewing my Mandarin Witbier on Saturday. Gonna be my first yeast starter and my first multi-step mash -- I'm pretty psyched! Only trouble is it's a 2.5 gallon batch that will have to live in a 6 gallon carboy because my milk stout is being annoyingly slow to finish up in the small one. But I figure with the starter and warmer primary temp it should (fingers crossed) finish up quickly and get into bottles before the headspace can do any harm.

I finished to brew a clone Adelscott and the smell make me confident..to be continue

That's funny. I usually tell my wife to make plans on the weekends I want to brew. Otherwise she's in my way and I'm in hers. You must have young children?

 

[Oginme]

Doing a second batch of Sea Spray Summer Ale at the request of SWMBO on Sunday.

 

[ElJefeBrews]

Planning on doing a pilsner-calypso smash today. Only my second smash. Can't wait

 

[turkfebruary]

Gluten Free IPA-experiment time on deck for this Saturday, bottle conditioning some Gose, tasty as hell just needs some time to carb up

 

[Beer-lord]

Sunday brew day is Hop Juice. A friend put together a recipe with a great amount of hops and I just have to brew it as well.

How long did you let the gose sit before bottling? Ive got one now at almost a month and is just forming a pellicle so i want to leave it a bit longer, just not sure how long.

 

[brewbama]

I'll doing a North German Alt Beer tomorrow. I started my second step up this AM in anticipation of pitching tomorrow afternoon.

A week in the primary then added some priming sugar and bottled. I fermented till I hit terminal gravity, had a sample warm and flat it was a bit salty but it has been in the bottle for 5 days as of today and the carbonation is helping with the salt mouthfeel. I am going to wait another 2 weeks before really drinking it. I have never heard of wanting a pellicle on this type of beer.

I've got another 5 gallons of Oktoberfest to make. The first 5 is ready to be kegged and lagered.

 

[Yellowirenut]

5 gallon saison tomorrow morning.
I cleaned out the garage in case it rains.
Will be a bacon n' brewing kind of morning.

 

[Terek]

Doing an Oaked oat stout Tom morning. Just got my starter going. The wyeast packet I got from the LHBS for free cuz it was past the date.....I hope it takes off.....at least I have some washed us-05 just in case

 

[bigken462]

I have two AG kits sitting beside me that I was planning to put in the BK tomorrow morning at daybreak. Sad thing is, I've developed a ****ty case of bronchitis, sinusitis, laryngitis and a damn ear infection. The only thing not yet swollen, sore or infected is my bunghole and I'm sure by the time these antibiotics get done with me, that's not too far off either.

Hope you guys have better luck this weekend than I have.

Happy Brewing!

 

[cjgenever]

I have an 8 hour window tomorrow. I'm going to bottle an IPA to clear out the fermenter. then I'm going to brew a Pliny followed by a robust Porter.

I haven't yet tested my new equipment configuration. this should be a complete disaster. I love a challenge

Brewing an American IPA Sunday morning, just put the starter of WLP001 on the stir plate. This will be my first AG brew.

 

[ElJefeBrews]

My pilsner/calypso smash boiling away as we speak

 

[choirjon]

Cottage House Saison... Willamette instead of Fuggle, everything else about the same. Can't wait to add black pepper to a beer.
