Brewing an APA/IPA tomorrow… Prepped the grains last night (measured out) and will mill them tonight and get all my equipment ready.

Recipe is like 79% 2-row, 8% vienna, 10% white wheat and like 3% crystal 20. Using something like 0.8oz of carafa III for color only at mash out to raise SRM by a few points.

Will be using Columbus, Chinook, Mosaic and Citra for the hopping. No hop stand this time around, just a late addition (5min left in boil). My last few IPA’s have been turbid and never clear, even with US-05 or S-04, which I believe is due to the hop stands I have been doing… So trying this one without!

Pitching 1056 and will ferment at 64F. Made a 1.5L starter for it and currently cold crashing that.

Using my most aggressive water profile to date for this one… Have not gone beyond 300ppm sulfates yet on previous IPA’s, but doing 350 this time (Cl is at like 26, so big SO4:Cl ratio!). Previous IPA was 300/26 or so.

Target specs are 5.8% ABV and 55 IBU.

Following this APA I have back to back lagers ready to go (Dunkel and Festbier)
 
Brewing an ale version of an amber lager my wife is fond of. It turns out great using Saflager w-34/70 and tomorrow is an experiment to see how different it will taste using US-05.
 
Wife has been asking me to brew a beer she likes. Looks like it's gonna be a Hoegaarden this weekend.
 
Hoping to brew tomorrow. I want to use up some malts & hops, so based on what I have I'm thinking a White IPA. And maybe a saison
 
Bottling a hoppy Belgian pale ale
And brewing a rye American pale with Galaxy,citra and hull melon fermented with Brett Trois
 
12ltr of saison, hopped with Archer, late addition of Hibiscus,fermented with Wallonian Farmhouse.
4 litres taken out before the boil to be soured with L.Plantarum and re-added post souring.

No bacteria to be hurt by boiling in this batch
 
Was brewing an APA yesterday with organic pilsner, vienna and melanoid.. Bittered with galena, aroma from citra and rakau. BRY-97 as the yeastie. Oh, was also my 25th batch!

Just mashed in a German hefeweizen for 4th of July. My sister requests it every year. Test mash on a brand new mash tun too. I have used the same one for 5 years so it's weird with something else.
 
Got a brown ale experiment in the works, Maris otter, brown malt and extra dark crystal, EKG and styrians in the boil. 1335 yeast and the first run with the brewjacket
 
I did a 5 gallon batch of Steam lager yesterday using 34/70 yeast that is on it's third turn-around. Had very active fermentation this morning. First two lagers have been great. I have been following the info from the Brulosophy article. :ban:Can't wait for this next one to finish,
 
Batch #48!
Decided on a german style summer beer, but amped it up by doing a hopfenweisse instead of the standard hefe. Found the schneiderweisse a few weeks ago and fell in love with this beer.
Good brew session. Started at 8 to finish around 1am to help me stay up and get ready for night shift next week.
 
Think I'm going to get rid of my half pound of Ahtanum in the freezer. been staring at me sealed in a bag for months now. Gunna do a simple IPA. Bitter with bravo and dump the half pound in where I see fit saving about 3 ounces for dry hopping.

Not the weekend but brewing tonight while the kids and wife are in bed. What else is there to do while your waiting for the mash timer to go off? Take a photo and post it to the HBT forums!!

Any how, brewing the Zombie Dust clone found within the forums here. Can't wait to see how it turns out!!!
 
Provided my sack of 2-Row comes in at the LHBS I'll be making a batch of 4Gs Amber Ale from the Brewer's Friend website. I haven't done an amber since moving up to all grain.
 
Busy this weekend, but gonna throw together a quickie partial mash British Golden Ale in the morning*.

*Morning may be early afternoon.
 
I wish I were brewing this weekend, buuuuut I already have the ferm chamber full, and an extra 5 gal sitting out in room temp. That plus work means I hope ill have time on Sunday to take some gravity readings!
