So who's brewing this weekend?

[day_trippr]

Doing 10 gallons of Juicy Bits tomorrow.
Yeast is all cooked up, RO water made, grains and salts measured. Ready to go!

Cheers!

I am trying to kill my NEIPA keg and brew one tomorrow since I got some Galaxy but if I cannot kill her I will brew a semi hoppy blonde (wai-iti) and the Citra single hop kit I got on Amazon dirt cheap from moorebeer

First brew day tomorrow with 2 burners, hoping to save a lot of time and hit a local brewery when I am done

Making 10 gallons of Saison tomorrow, using (2) 5 gal Carboys since I'm heating instead of cooling. One will be WY3726 Farmhouse Ale, one WY3711 French Saison. Looking forward to tasting these side by side to evaluate yeast impacts. I'm a'scared of the "Ferment at 90 Degrees" advice, so will likely hold at start at 70 and gradually bump up to 75-77.

I have that on tap right now, 2nd keg, Love It!!!

It's a great recipe, clone-wise. This will be my third 10 gallon batch of it - it rivals Julius for going fast here!

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 .

 

[Funkychef]

Just mashed in and weighed hops.
First brew in 6 months as life has been out of control.

Oh, I totally simplified the hop additions because the clone recipe is a bit nuts

I do ten gallon batches, skip the FWH (because frankly it's voodoo) and use 1 ounce of Chinook at 60 instead (because why waste citra/el dorado/mosaic on bittering?)
Then I do 2 ounces of citra/el dorado/mosaic at 5, another 2 ounces of each for whirlpooling at 160°F for 20 minutes plus chill-down time (probably another 20 minutes). Then 2 ounces of each for bio-hops, then four days later another 2 ounces of each for four days. Two days crash cooling and it's into kegs...

Cheers!

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.

If you want quickness a NEIPA or a Saison can be had very quick at full potential

I find a stout is better matured

Chocolate is always nice

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

I have the water measured and in the kettle, ready to fire up in the morning. Imperial stout and will see what I can do with a partigyle.

Grain milled last night for an IPA tomorrow, using the last of the Mosaic for flavor/aroma/dry hop, and bittered with Cascade. With the warmer weather, going to change up the chilling procedure by using the plate chiller until it gets down to 90, then switching the hoses to the IC buried in ice water. Also going to keg the Mosaic Pils brewed 2 weeks ago, that tastes absolutely fantastic.

Friend of my brothers came over to make some whisky (yes, perfectly legal hereabouts). He had 12kg of grain so we set aside 3.5kg for BIAB and crammed the rest in the grainfather. BIAB went fine but the grainfather was very slow to sparge. 35L of wort, no idea how it will come out, learning experience for both of us.

 

[jready]

My better half is out of town this weekend shooting to get 4 batches in.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Dough in.

 

[TheMadKing]

Ramping up from a 95F mash in to my beta rest temp on my märzen

 

[One4Liberty]

Brewing a new IPA recipe. Updated my simple haus IPA with some Vienna and trying some Galaxy hops.

 

[MagicRat]

Making a simple Vienna lager - 10 Vienna, .5 Caramunich II, .1 Carafa II

 

[day_trippr]

Fly sparge done, numbers are looking good, on to the boil!

 

[bracconiere]

i've been cheating on brew days, and making cider recently....but all 6 of my kegs are full now, so i'm going to brew some beer tomorrow...

(been damn near a year since i've had 6 full kegs! i'm happy again! )

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Moss and aroma hops in.

The day was going so smooth until now

Funny - Julius clone is the batch I brewed following the Juicy Bits, it's now on the 2nd keg and going fast.

 

[day_trippr]

Juicy Bits joins the pipeline party! Volume and OG on the nose. It's a beautiful thing

Cheers!

The floor doesn’t look like it needs a cleaning.

 

[Cat skinner]

I’m gonna brew a margarita Gose tomorrow. I quit brewing 2 1/2 years ago when diagnosed as type II diabetic. I’ve missed it (although I wasn’t a frequent brewer then, still a newbie ). Blood sugars are under control, I drink Michelob ultra now and no blood sugar issues so I’m gonna play this weekend and brew a hopefully moderate low carb beer.

 

[Beer-lord]

I'm brewing a Strata hopped Pale on Father's Day because I was asked what I wanted to do on FD and said, "brew". Why not?

 

[BarleyStanding]

Weissbier going into fermenter.

 

[GoeHaarden]

Waking the beast from Friday. Kettle sour gose...

 

[Kharnynb]

Making my yearly batch of honey/star anise wheat.
Since i switched to m21 yeast it for even better.
