Two batches on Saturday: west coast style dIPA with Nelson and a pale ale with cashmere.
 
I like ur style! [emoji482] what hop combos did u use?

In the double with Nelson, I used a 10ml hop shot and 1oz magnum for bittering. 2oz of Nelson in the whirlpool @ 170F and 2 x 3oz Nelson for dry hopping (likely day 5 and day 7).
For the pale ale, all whole hop cashmere with 1oz for bittering and 7oz in the whirlpool at 170F.
Cheers!

Sounds delicious!
 
Looking at doing a sahti hopefully, but starting to get a backlog of beers, though...glad I can just give the pumpkin away!
 
When you're semi retired and self employed Tuesday can be the weekend.

Brewing an Octoberfest and drinking HB Octoberfest. The batch I made last month was a big hit so I decided I'd better brew another.

Brewing a Neipa this weekend... maybe I'll post a brew log... if that's a thing in these parts...
 
Planning on a Munich Dunkel on Thursday or Friday.

Hey, when you are retired, most any day is the weekend.

So, I did my Munich Dunkel this afternoon. 1.054 and using 2 different yeasts: S-23 and S-189.

I'll see how it turns out.
 
Tomorrow's plans are for a batch of Spruce Tip Honey Amber Ale. It was a big hit around the holidays last year so a ten gallon batch should do this year. After Thanksgiving dinner I'll know if another batch is needed to last through the Winter.
 
Brewing my Pilsener Lager attempt. Trying to make it all the same as last recipe except using a new smack pick of Wyeast 2007 Pilsen Lager versus 2124 Bohemian Lager (on 4th propagation) to see if I can tell difference
Perfect weather 56-61F (especially since for chilling my hose water runs about air temperatures in Texas)
 
Second run with my new RIMS system tomorrow. The first attempt I milked too fine and stuck the mash scorching the wort

Brewing a “white IPA” which is basically my version of a hazy before hazy was a thing.

I was going to brew a Marzen this weekend but my LHBS didn't have a Wyeast, Imperial, White Labs or Omega strain for it (???).... I contacted the next closest LHBS, who will have the yeast transported from Philadelphia to NJ over night, and I'll pick it up in the morning.... the brew will be delayed until next weekend. I found a new LHBS, although a longer travel time, but at least they are accommodating.

Any lager strain will do. Hardly any variation between them unlike ales.
