So who's brewing this weekend?

[Qhrumphf]

Will be brewing a Belgian Blond, a Witbier, and making 16 lbs of English style invert syrup between the weekend and the following few days while I burn the last of my vacation time for the year. One brew per day, or 8 lbs of the invert (4lb each of #1-4, two batches per day), just not sure which order I'll go in.

 

[govner1]

Have a 6 gal batch of my OAB ESB planned on Saturday w/ my son.

 

[Where_the_Redfern_Brews]

Doing my first batch since 2013 tomorrow after we do presents etc.

I started brewing in 2011 and between my obsession with mountain biking and cooking/smoking on my big green egg brewing just took a seat for awhile (shame, I know). Had the itch to start up again so I went to a newer LHBS near me and picked up a new burner and a keg so I don't have to bottle anymore.

I also picked up some ingredients to do a chocolate milk stout, which is what I am brewing tomorrow.

Here's the new burner and keg.

 

[Bandit-brewer]

Doing a bigfoot barley wine with a partigile. Probably sunday cause im busy the next 2 days.

 

[BUCKNUTS]

mashed in on Tripel about 1/2 hour ago.

 

[GrogNerd]

Went to start brew day, but my burner STB

I would have gone to get a new one if it wasn't Christmas Eve

No brewing until it's replaced

 

[te-wa]

doing a cascadian dark on friday afternoon.

 

[Pkrd]

Orange Coriander Pale ale brewed today. Replenishing supplies as my brews have been too popular these last few weeks.

Did the mash before lunch, brought to the boil and then let it cool while I went for a hike. Finished up before dinner. Worked out pretty well. Stone Ruination up next.

 

[Stillraining]

Tomorrows my brew day...OH crap look at the time ...err, ummm, I mean make that today:rockin: I better get...some sleep. Scheeh!

 

[Phildo253]

I am off from the 24th to the 4th, so I think that I am going to turn this into a brewcation.

Not sure I will be able to get to it all, but just bottled a spiced cider, planning the make a blueberry wheat cider, strawberry wheat cider, moose drool clone, and a Bavarian Dunkelweizen (family drank almost 2 cases of current batch over Christmas).

I also figured that it is the perfect time, since I am already outside to fire up the smoker and smoke some cheezes and some meatses.

Got an HD giftcard from the in-laws, so I also get to start materials shopping to build my brew station.

Dang, on 2nd thought, I might be less busy if I actually go to work this week.

 

[SteveH aka shetc]

Making Dr. Smurto's Golden Ale. This is my first attempt at using RO water and acidulated malt. Measuring with Doutest pH strips, I believe I got the mash pH to 5.4.

 

[Clonefan94]

Brewing a simple citra IPA today. Starting chill right now.

 

[sablesurfer]

FIRST BREW on the zymatic. Actually hit the numbers, now to see how this tastes in a few weeks.

 

[Terek]

brewed a porter this morning. I recently got all new equipment. I did a few brews and got horrible eff. 50-60% I did a bunch of tweeks to the equipment, and this morning was kind of a "test run" ended up hitting all my numbers. 81%

 

[alexacuna]

Brewed a red ale yesterday. My first 5-gallon batch, fingers crossed.

 

[JBone120]

Just doughed in a double IPA. Good time to check the forums while i wait. Will get a chance to use the new ferm chamber i got... kind of excited. Hooray temp control!

 

[sleepspeaking]

I finally got a chance to brew. And it's going horribly. Kit is missing the first hop addition. .. it's an ipaso that sucks... then a stuck sparge.... I don't know what to do. ... I guess I'll bring it to a boil... leave the lid on, and pick up some hops tomorrow after work.

 

[signpost]

Brewing up some blonde wort to put on a sour yeast cake. It was Wyeast French Saison + Brewery Vivant Escoffier Brett dregs + Jolly Pumpkin La Roja dregs.

I'll be bottling and brewing the same day. Should be fun.

 

[Stillraining]

Just finished brewing up a Porter today as planed...All went well.


Now I have to tackle this!

 

[Bandit-brewer]

Did a partigile today. Bigfoot barley wine and a little foot ale. Turned out good just waiting for things to cool before the yeast.
