Currently working on a simple blonde ale using GP with very small amounts of melanoidin, flaked barley, rye and maltodextrin, using WLP007 and Cashmere. Shooting for 6%, SRM=5 and IBU=26
WLP007This will be interesting. What yeast will you be using
It's a kit from the folks at Austin Brewhouse. Easier for me to do all grain kits now-dont have alot of storage in my brewery corner-and no homebrew shop nearby.Which Wheatwine recipe are you using? I'd like to do a Barley or Wheatwine later this summer.
Brewing a blonde ale this Friday. It will be based on Victory's "Summer Love" which is a toasty and hoppy blonde ale and it will be ready for the 4th of July. My version will be a little more sessionable for this hot summer heat. Also will be tapping my Belgian Wit that I made prior on Father's Day.

What did you do with the Wit? I'm doing the typical coriander, orange peel and Kent Goldings. You do anything special? I'm doing a dry yeast (prob T-58 from what I'm reading on the forum) unless my LBHS has a White Labs Witbier strain in stock.
I do the typical recipe as well. Mine has pilsner, flaked wheat, flaked oats, and Munich malts and Wyeast 3944 (Belgian Witbier) yeast. I use blood orange and tangerine zest (not the white pith), Indian coriander, and I like to throw in some ground black pepper corns (or three color pepper corns) for a very subtle peppery background flavor. I also use Hallertauer Mittelfreuh hops as I like that hop in my wits. Good luck on your brew day, it's a great style that is one of my favorites.

How much zest would you estimate you use? I planned on zesting a couple of oranges to get what the recipe calls for (.75 oz); curious to see what you went with.
That surprise day off! You know you're a homebrewer if...Surprise day off tomorrow...
Teeing up a kettle sour Gose in the morning. Hopefully finishing it on Sunday...
Very interested in the result and how fermentation goes. Ordered a pack of OMEGA Yeast - OYL-091 - Hornindal Kveik yeast for a green bullet hopped ipa.Just got an opening on Sunday. Time to try out Kveik yeast on a Pale Ale.

Going to brew a 5.5 gallon batch of Irish Red Ale tomorrow after work. Only working until 10:30 so flame-on should happen by 11:00-11:15.
Congrats Pops!Brewing up a Helles Bock Sunday for my first father's day as an actual father!
I have that on tap right now, 2nd keg, Love It!!!Doing 10 gallons of Juicy Bits tomorrow.
Yeast is all cooked up, RO water made, grains and salts measured. Ready to go!
Cheers!
day tripper do you do the hop additions to the tenth of a gram (like I did) or do you simplify it? I loved the 5 gallon batch I did but thought rounding up or down might make it less tedious to measure out. Sunday I'm doing the Wry Smile IPA from Denny...only the second clone I've done...Juicy Bits was the first .
I am just finishing up the boil on a chocolate stout. Doesn’t exactly scream summer but my last two brews were lagers so I am set nicely. I look forward to this being done quickly, waiting on the lagers to finish up is painful.
