Too cold

 

[beermanpete]

I made a blonde ale for the Super bowl party.

 

[MaryB]

-7 for today's high temp... PASS! -40 windchills!

 

[Nokt]

-15 F here this morning with windchills at -26 F. I think I'll wait at least until it get above Zero.

 

[Brewenstein]

Brewed Thursday (28th). 13 gallons of imperial stout and 5.5 gallons of low ABV stout with the third runnings. 48 pounds of grain, 4 pounds of sugar. 1.101 on the imperial and 1.039 on the regular.

And drank this while brewing.

Mashing in on a Best Bitter right now. 9# maris otter, 1# homemade invert #2 will go in the boil along with some EKG. 1469 will be the yeast!

 

[SpottedDogBrewing]

Brooklyn Brewery Black Ops Clone

 

[seatazzz]

Discovered I was going to run out of beer before vacation in 2 weeks so mashing in an Arrogant Bastard clone today. Skimped a pound on the grain bill in order to use the pound of dextrose I forgot on the last brew. About 8 minutes left in the mash.

-12 for the high temp today! Ordered a pump so I can chill wort by recirculating instead of running the hose... will make winter brewing easier. Need to get a tank to catch the hot water from the first part of cooling and use it for cleaning... get away from garden hose in this deep cold. I can refill the cooling water barrel by carrying water from the house.

 

[BongoYodeler]

Was planning on brewing a SMaSH IPA with my son today, he's in from Minnesota and has never witnessed homebrewing in action. We both woke up sick as dogs this morning. Plans canceled.

 

[BikerMatt]

Pilsner-corn cerveza coming up tonight once I get home and get the kids to bed.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

My 5gal Balcones Distillery barrel wont fill itself. Time for a 10-Fidy'ish clone.

 

[brewcat]

Trying to work myself up for brewing this weekend. Going to be nice enough unlike the past two when I wanted to brew. Now feeling lazy but may be the only chance I get for awhile. Have to check propane and make a starter tonight.

Either brew a Christmas Stout or a Bitter.

 

[BudgetBrewer]

Maybe another Bells 2 Hearted.... Its chilly. -31 F. Love my garage lol..

Only took me 6 tries to thumbs up that. Yay transmigration of souls.

I'm taking advantage of the above freezing temps today and brewing a Kölsch-inspired pale ale. It's been -30C for a couple weeks and this "warm" weather is very much appreciated!

 

[govner1]

Not this weekend but Thursday. Brewing a 6g AG batch of Emellise DIPA.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

-31?? -30?? Umm, we complain when it's +30..even +40.

NEIPA planned in a couple days.

I actually brewed at -28C over Christmas, and the weather was surprisingly tolerable. Clear blue skies and calm. The unforseen factor was the propane. Apparently -30 is so damn cold that it won't gassify properly! I managed a weak 30 minute boil before it gave up the ghost.

On otherwords you were outside attempting this feat....speechless! I don't golf unless it's over 60f. Feeling wimpy right now...

 

[pshankstar]

Now that the cold spell is over (for now), I plan to brew a NE IPA on Monday since I have the day off. Temps are suppose to be in the teen's so I better take advantage of it! I scored 2lbs of Belma hops for free, so I think I will do a blend of Citra/Amarillo/Belma for this brew.

 

[MaryB]

Managed a brew day Monday, just an 11 gallon batch of my "house" ale all my friends love. Need to get a batch of lager brewed next... next time temps are above 25 and I won't freeze the garden hose solid!

 

[treacheroustexan]

Gonna get another foot of snow on Friday night, so for the first time I'll be brewing up my new recipe. A Great Lakes Chillwave inspired double IPA with Mosaic, Nugget and Cascade hops. 9% abv, ~80 ibu's

 

[BigBlueBrad]

Brewing a Frankenstein Saison Saturday. Two weekends in a row!

 

[Runyanka]

I had surgery on my achilles two weeks ago, so I’m sidelined for a while. Got plenty of recipes I’m eager to brew. Nothing but podcasts and hopeful thinking for a while.

 

[BikerMatt]

Wasn't planning to, but since I'll be in the garage cleaning up at friday night anyway might as well put a pot boiling since I got a vacant fermentor and all the ingredients. Might do a second batch of gringo but with bolder hops as the first one was mainly brewed for my wife/sister/her husband, could possibly school the aforementioned in beer tasting in the process.

 

[hagar]

Planning on getting up early tomorrow and getting a Kölsch going. I'm wanting to use up the last of the Nelson Sauvin from last year. I haven't brewed in a good while so I'm definitely looking forward to it.

 

[Miraculix]

I will brew a closet red IPA tonight. Basically trying to get rid of all the malts and hops I got flying around here to make some space. Red x, 2 different crystals, lager malt, bohemian pilsener, munich, flaked barley, a dash of carafa2, and a bit of spelt malt combined with admiral for bittering and simcoe and green bullet as aroma additions. I think I will skip the dry hopping, but if there are going to be leftovers from Simcoe or green bullet, I will reconsidder it.

Nelson sauvin in a Kolsch?! I likey.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Chilling a NEIPA. Will have 10oz hops for 3.5gal when all is said and done. HB gin/lime Gose to help kill time.
