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

[ohiobrewtus]

BM goes about 130# after he gets out of the pool with his clothes on, so 5.5% is a monster to him.

No brewing for me this weekend. Just racking the 22 gallons that I did last weekend and starting work on the Sanyo conversion.

 

[Soulive]

very kewl!

Yeah it kicks ass. I get to learn, hangout, shoot the $hit and "sample"

 

[raceskier]

Went to the homebrew club meeting at the LHBS last night and also picked up grains for 2 batches. This weekend it's a 5 gallon batch of DFH 60 Minute IPA clone. After Turkey day. I'm doing a 5 gallon batch of Rogue Hazenut Brown clone.

 

[pjj2ba]

I hope to brew an experimental batch this weekend. Half of the mash will be homemade Swedish rye bread and the rest some 6 row, some pale and a little specialty malt. Trappist ale yeast. Shooting for an OG of around 1.060.

 

[shunoshi]

I'm whipping up 5 gallons of EdWort's Haus Ale. I'm looking forward to comparing it with the Two-Hearted Ale clone that I just brewed since they have very similar recipes, the major difference being the hops.

One can never have enough pale ales around!

 

[Brewsmith]

I'm brewing up my #50 Barleywine/Bitter/Small Beer from the same mash.

 

[Joker]

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.

 

[Cheesefood]

I'm doing a honey hefe with 2 pounds of honey malt.

Hosting a group brew tomorrow. Hopefully my back is cooperative. I need to get up early and clean out my equipment.

Either way - porter or cream ale, sounds like you have a good day planned!

How’s Bout You’s???

What’s in your kettle?

Your Orange Kolsch.

 

[Ó Flannagáin]

Welp, got heating up to a boil now. This sucker is gonna be around 12% abv.

 

[Ryan_PA]

I got a whole lot of nothing going this weekend. I should have a ton of grain I ordered from More Beer waiting for me at home. Maybe I will whip up some apple wine...

 

[Dude]

I'm doing a honey hefe with 2 pounds of honey malt.

Yikes.

 

[Melana]

We're doing another Ginger Hefe tomorrow and an IPA on Sunday. Perhaps i'll get another 5 gallons of Apfelwine going too!
Oh, and we'll be bottling too! busy beer weekend WOOHOO!

 

[Chad]

My weekend brewing has been moved to Monday/Tuesday, but I'm going for a trifecta -- bottling Apex Amber v2.0, racking my failed Hobgoblin clone* and brewing a test batch of a strong brown ale I'm working on.

Chad

*lousy crush on the grains I ordered dropped my efficiency to about 54%. It's beer, but not the one I was shooting for.

 

[landhoney]

5 gallons of a RR Temptation clone with Mike T, Saturday Maybe I'll take some pics.

Also Wednesday before Thanksgiving will be a double brewday(2 of the 3):
1. Cuvee De Tomme(Pizza Port/Lost Abbey) clone
2. De Dolle Oerbier(sour brown) Clone
3. Tripel Saison

Man Seefresh,

Sounds like you got a nice one in the making. You're getting your Belgian on aren't you! I have a Belgian strong Dark Ale in the primary and it still hasn't strarted clearing yet.

Not to get this thread I will be brewing sometime before Christmas and It'll probably be an Oatmeal Stout. Right now it's great brewing weather here. Priorities take precidence.

Rumors of my wussy-dom have been greatly exaggerated…well…maybe not so much…
Problem is, I average 6-8 beers a night…and that’s on weekdays. So much beer…so little time.

A nice choice. You won’t be sorry. Very forgiving recipe.

That will be popular amongst the non-hop heads. Great holiday beer too with that slight spice and orange zest.

 

[Evets]

I'll be brewing something on Sunday, just not sure what. I've got 5 different WL vials in the fridge, and plenty of just about any grain and hops you can think of. I need to get a starter going tonight so I better decide soon, I guess.

 

[Willy Boner]

A very nice stout will be in the pot very soon!

 

[EdWort]

Nichts! Nada! I'm taking an NRA Rifle Instructor class 9 am to 7 pm both Saturday & Sunday and the range is an hours drive each way.

 

[DeathBrewer]

i'm takin a little time off, unfortunately. my back is giving me trouble and i need to really get my apartment (aka life) organized.

i kegged my brown ale last night, tho get to take my 4912 for a test run :rockin:

 

[ThomasRau]

This weekend I'll be bottling up a Holiday Spiced Ale, I left it in the secondary an extra week to dry hop and brewing an AHS Cannonball Stout. The starter is already bubbling away and getting the little yeasties all happy for tomorrows move.

 

[davidr2340]

It's been about 2 months since I brewed any beer...
So tomorrow after work I'm brewing up the Nose Nipper Spiced Holliday Ale from Homebrew Heaven!
It's going to be good to brew once again!!!

 

[mrk305]

Saturday night is going to be busy. I took last weekend off of all brewing, so tomorrow I have two batches of beer and one batch of aplewein to bottle. All together about 17 gallons.

Then it is time for my first all grain batch. I am pretty sure Edwort's Haus Pale Ale is required for HBT'rs first all grain.

 

[Spyk'd]

I'm doing my Whitbread Pale Ale on Sunday. It will be ready in time for Christmas and Whitbreads are my best friend's favorite style. I'm sure he'll approve.


Unfortunately, my starter is off to a slow start, but then, the Whitbread strain has always been slow to start for me...



C'mon Sunday!

 

[bluelou6]

I am doing a double batch today. 10 gallons of hefe weizen followed by 5 gallons of brown ale.

 

[Mutilated1]

I put your Haus Ale in the fermenter early this morning, and I'm cooking "Black Dog" right now.

 

[IndyPABrewGuy]

I'm brewing my End of Year Beer tomorrow, which was originally going to be everything I have left from brewing over the past few months, but in the last 24 hours its turned into my first PM. Its inspired by Stone XI, I guess its my take on a Black IPA. We'll see how it turns out. I'm currently waiting for my LHBS to open so I can go get some Pale Malt.

Cheers,

 

[homebrewer_99]

I'm doing prep work right now for a Czech Budvar... :rockin:
