What are we brewing this weekend?

We're doing our first Partial Mash on Monday. It will be a variation of the Amarillo APA from the recipe database.

My Dark Hearted Brown kicked the holiday weekend off in style last night, despite the fact that my 2-yr old decided THIS would be a good night to stay up until 10:30...

Anyway, had an awesome brew session. Mashed in at 11:00 pm, pitched yeast at 2:30 am, everything cleaned up and put away by 3:00 am. Definitely my fastest AG brew yet. Nailed my mash temp, nailed my OG, got exactly 5.5 gal in the primary. And at 8:30 this morning, bubbles in the airlock. Now percolating away with a nice krausen head.

Life is good!

You ought to post this on the recipe database and give us an update on the taste when you crack it open. I'd be interested in how a steam beer turns, not having used a lager yeast before.

 

[Brew-boy]

I am making a Sierra Neveda pale ale clone that I seen in BYO magazine.
All grain with freshops hops.

 

[2nd Street Brewery]

I've done that SNPA recipe a couple of times and it turned out good. I'll be doing an Irish red tomorrow. I'm getting low on homebrew and really need to get off my arse and brew.

Ill do that -- I plan on keeping the temps around 62-65deg for all of the fermentation. So well see how this turns out.

I'm doing 10 gallons of Kölsch tomorrow. Got the starter going yesterday from one of my bottled Yeast leftovers from my batch in March. Stepped it up this morning and it's going strong on the stir plate. I should have plenty for pitching tomorrow afternoon in 2 buckets.

10 gallon Batch #2 coming up! I'm stoked.

 

[Brewsmith]

My Fat Tuba Pale Ale is brewing right now. Tomorrow I'm doing a Kolsch.

I'm brewing up my Pine Barrens Black Lager today. I'm excited because it's based on one of my favorite beers, Saranac Black Forest. I'm also excited because it's my first lager!

 

[andvari7]

Type: All Grain
Size: ~1 gallon

Grain:
3lbs Briess Rye
2lb Maris Otter

Spices/Additives:
2 tbsp. black peppercorns, 1 cracked
1 tsp. Irish Moss

Hops:
.5 oz New Zealand Super Alpha 60min
.5 oz New Zealand Super Alpha 20 min
1 oz Amarillo 5 min

Yeast:
Wyeast #1084 - Irish Ale

Ferment for as long as necessary, bottle condition with pure maple syrup, which I always have on hand, because I like pancakes; taste at three weeks. If this is as bad as I imagine it will be, I'll have to drink all of it, to preserve my dignity. I suspect that will be the case. If, however, it turns out to be delicious, then I will adapt this recipe for five gallons.

 

[acidrain23]

I just finished an dark India Brown Ale, with a malty base and tons of late addition Nelson, Galaxy, Chinook and Summit. Should be interesting!

 

[benzesp]

A lager, I put a Czech pils in last weekend so I figure if I'm gonna monopolize ferm space I need another bottom fermenter in. I brew so out of season, WTH?

 

[ZebulonBrewer]

Thinking of brewing a Ruination kit my LHBS sells. Sounds like an excellent Saturday morning, myself
