So who's brewing this weekend?

[Schmoltsbeer]

Brewing a double Classic American Pilsner today. I was calling it malt liquor, but I said that in the LHBS and two of the three working there got real quiet. So, I decided I'd go with double CAP. Hopefully it's not too bad, otherwise I'm going to stay lit until I make the keg go away!

Just mashed in on my BIAB Yooper's Oatmeal Stout.

Near the end of boiling a iipa.

Yooper's Oatmeal Stout brew day went pretty smoothly. Hopefully, I'll see some activity in the blow-off in the moning. Pitched the yeast at about 3:30 pm and the yeast was packaged Dec. 10th, so it should nice and fresh!

Just finished brewing a 10 gallon all grain (BIAB) split batch of a belgian pale ale with grains of paradise, tangerine peel, cloves, saffron and vanilla bourbon soaked french oak chips. Split the batch into 2 fermenters and used WLP500 "Monastery" Ale Yeast and WLP515 Antwerp Ale Yeast (De Koninck). Ended up with a higher gravity (1.065) than expected due to my new 220,000 BTU burners, but hey, tasted pretty delicious.

[bragona71]

trying an experiment this weekend..I made a dark brown ale that turned out more like a porter(but yummy as hell) so im trying same recipe and adding vanilla and coco nibs to secondary to see how it turns out

 

[brewman551]

Just pitched my yeast in Morebeer.com's American IPA. It was my first time using them. Previously I have always gone with Northern Brewer or something from my LHBS. Finished at 1.062, on the high end of their estimate.

 

[Sepanik1986]

Just brewed the dead ringer kit from nb. Forgot how easy extract was

 

[Todd820]

Going for an Oatmeal Stout this weekend.

 

[wtaylor3]

Brewing a brewers best American Light extract kit with my dad before we watch the Detroit Lions upset the Packers

 

[Bulls Beers]

Brewing a Helles lager... Boiling away as we speak..

 

[Psylocide]

Got two brews planned for this weekend... I still can't decide what style I want to brew for the first one (DIPA is the second... that's a lock).

I'm either thinking a blonde, an English Mild or something along those lines. I need a quick turn around to keep my pipeline filled.

Feel free to throw suggestions at me.

 

[Zepth]

Just mashed in a California Common-esque ale.

 

[mattmmille]

Made my gingerbread flavoring for the 2 gallons of Yooper's Oatmeal stout that I'm going to split off in about a week. Soaking in vodka, in the fridge.

 

[finsfan]

Finally able to brew again tomorrow. Brewing up @Wesleys 's "Its a trapp" all mosaic belgian IPA. Yum.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Brewing right now. A 10 gallon worth of a ~4% saison which 5 gallons will have a farmhouse blend and the other 5 gallons will have a sour blend. Then once they are done bigger beer will go on top

 

[mcbaumannerb]

Brewing a nugget nectar clone (byo) on Sunday. Maybe a batch of Hop Stinger DIPA as well (if brew day goes smoothly enough)

 

[riceral]

Brewed earlier today. I have an old ale with chestnuts in the fermenter.

 

[Clonefan94]

Just mashed in for a Citra IPA bittered with magnum. Just sitting and enjoying a pipe now. Great morning so far.

Modified my cooler MLT with a cpvc manifold this morning...thinking I may do raging red IRA in addition to my dads american light extract kit tomorrow

 

[Genghis]

Once I get a pile of bottling out of the way (Centennial Blonde and Apfelwein), a batch of Skeeter Pee.

 

[oogaboogachiefwalkingdeer]

Bottled two five gallon batchs, a Yooper House Ale and a IPA. Then brewed a five gallon honey ale and a five gallon nut brown ale. I think I will re organize my brew stuff and throw some pre cleaned bottles in the dish washer to get ready for next week end.

 

[signpost]

Brewing up an 8 gallon batch of brown ale to sour with ECY-20 Bug County. Biggest single batch I've done, but I'm boiling in two vessels for safety purposes.

 

[Gduck]

Sounds like a nice week off! :rockin:

 

[z-bob]

I will be either brewing on New Years Day, or building a stirplate and playing with yeast starters and then brewing on Saturday. Next beer in the queue is a simple cream ale

• 85% American pale ale malt
• 15% corn
• I haven't decided which hops to use because I don't have any Cluster, maybe Willamette.
• Nottingham yeast.

 

[markstache]

I'm holding a "Brew Year's Day" party. RIS not to be opened until 2015-12-01.
