What’s In Your Kettle This Weekend? (11/16-11/18)

[2nd Street Brewery]

No brewing but I have to keg one ale and bottle a pils. Probably brew again next weekend.

 

[c.n.budz]

well, it's 1pm and I'm just starting my first batch.... I didn't even get out of bed until 11:30.... damn hangover, too many dead guy ales lastnight....

 

[BlindLemonLars]

Too many household and yard chores to brew today, but I'll be making another patch of my PM APA tomorrow. My friends can't get enough of that one, I've got to get the pipeline full again.

Next weekend will be my first all-grain batch, either a kolsch or Orfy's Old Speckled Hen.

 

[Short Drive]

An Alpha King Clone, my fifth batch.

Though since I took the day off, I hope to brew it today.

I've got everything to do my 10 gal. version of Alpa King. It is a variation of the BYO recipe in 150 Clone Beers.

What's your recipe like?

Finally have the house to myself so I made a ESB today, hope it tastes as good as it smells. Actually anything smells good right now, I'm starved, need food.

 

[Poindexter]

I made a one gallon pilot of a mead recipe I found in an old SCA* newsletter. 1 "measure" of honey, seven measures of water and one half measure of hops.

I used "two cups" as "One measure" for a one gallon batch, 2.5% Saaz whole/leaf for the hops. Pitched that about an hour ago. I have ten gal of EW's Haus Pale to bottle.

I am going to try a one gallon AG dopplebock probably Sunday. It is the one Charlie P says to dilute four ways with water for your BMC swilling friends. I think I can manage a one gal AG, may or may not dilute it four ways.

[PintOfBitter]

Hopefully a dort export - will be my first lager. Not sure if I'll get time to do it this weekend though...

 

[brewhead]

30 gallons of black widow kolsch

 

[niquejim]

After 3 straight 11+ hour days, and 4 more to go(I'm a baker, got to hate the holidays). There is nothing brewing this weekend, but I did secondary the Alt for 8 weeks of cold conditioning and dry hopped Bob G's Sharks Tooth Pale Ale.

 

[mrfocus]

Making my Christmas beer tomorrow. Just letting the starter cool down now. A friend of mine is interested in starting brewing and is gonna come over for the afternoon to see how I do it.

 

[Junebug]

Tomorrow I'm going to brew a nice German Wheat...the starter is happily bubbling away as we speak!

What’s In my Kettle This Weekend?

just air...

I'm not brewing this weekend

 

[Cheesefood]

Oh, fun brew day.

I had several board folks over for a "hang out and brew" day. I was making a hefe.

Well, true to form I failed to add the honey malt and even though I tried really hard to hit my target volume, I ended up light again and had to sparge my grains, boil and cool to top up.

By the end I was pretty drunk on all the great home brew everyone brought to share.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by.

 

[Danek]

This weekend was my first all-grain brew - I have five gallons of Edwort's Haus Pale Ale in the fermenter :rockin:

 

[ThomasRau]

Yesterdays stout brewing went great, SG 1.124 right on the button for the recipe. The big starter I made using WLP007 got things bubbling less than three hours after pitching. Today it is blasting stuff through the blow off tube like it is possessed. Hopefully the yeasties will stay happy and productive long enough to do the job completely.

 

[Kevin Dean]

Yesterday I came down with a mild form of food poisoning, I think. I was doing some furniture move-in and just started puking on the lawn... Not fun at all.

Didn't get my "chores" done last night, so they moved to today, and it's a bit too late to do my bitter tonight so it'll have to wait until next week.

 

[hmpitags2006]

I did 5 gallons of robust porter.

 

[niquejim]

Still trying to figure out the recipes but I hope to do 5 gallon of a chocolate porter or stout and 5 gallons some sort of cream all.

Scale this one down if you don't want to wait for it to age
