What are you drinking now?

[SupervisingChildren]

Glass table, you can do it!

Hahaha took me a few minutes to realize that was a glass table as well haha.

Last pour of DIPA after scarfing down some beer bread.

 

[ChefRex]

Its russian now..

Don't you just love that

 

[SFGiantsFan925]

Dafuq!!! How is it Russian? Owned by a Russian company? Is it at least still brewed in Texas? That sucks if it is. Won't buy it any more if that's the case.

My brain can't comprehend what I am seeing. Perhaps a beer will help.

Lol it's a glass patio table. That's the control for my space heater for the garage. Another beer should straighten things out. Lol

And then on top of the Lone Star, my sample from my Heady clone. 1.074 to 1.016 in 1.5 days. And the flavor is amazing so far.

Just bottled my Heady clone today. Got a bit more efficiency than I calculated for and it went from 1.084 to 1.020 for just a shade over 9%. Did you use someone else's recipe or one of your own design?

Used the recipe from here, the Can you clone it thread. I used the recipe to a T, except for the Centennial. I didnt have any and subbed Falconers Flight in its place. Its currently at about 7.6%, but its still bubbling away. Flavor is great and cant wait to dry hop it.

And thats a shame about Lone Star. I knew most other "American" brews went to Europe, but didnt know they did. Ill stick to local brews then.

Brooklyn brewery post road pumpkin ale.. Good stuff.. My local grocery had a blowout sale and had cases of it for $10! I bought two of course lol

First crack of my simcoe (semi) SMaSH. I used magnum for buttering so it doesn't quite have the full SH part.

Coopers Pilsner tweaked with crystal malt (can't remember how much) and Saaz hops. Left WAY too long to lager (6 months?) but it didn't go bad.

 

[RevKev]

My buddy left some yeungling and told me to drink it...this boot was made for drinking and that's just what I'll do!View attachment 248227

Have that same boot, along with some 1 liter stines, yard sticks and other nonsensical drinking glasses. Side note yuengling is devils water.

I asked for a stemmed glass that wasn't frozen.

 

[Remmy]

Conditions are supposed to be bad today. So, I'm thinking about staying home. And doing beer stuff.

Did you make it to your destination okay?


Coffee & Water. I couldn't sleep so I prepared a stew to go into the slow cooker. It occurred to me that I've never actually made stew before. It smells good already so there is that. There are no mushrooms though @chefrex. I've been wildly productive this morning and all before sunrise. I don't like it.

It is raining hard, flooding the yard and the streets. I didn't bother to pull dog out of bed because it would only stress her out to pee in the rain. Hopefully it eases up soon so she can go.

 

[BUCKNUTS]

Coffee at work. I need to get good and hydrated today since I will be getting hammered tonight.

What's stopping you?

Coffee here.

Coffee

Woke up late and roads are bad, took the day off

 

[TheCADJockey]

I still stress out over the process and am lacking a few things that would make it much easier. A propane burner and larger brew pot, specifically... the heavy duty pot I have takes a very, very long time to boil on my kitchen stove. Excuses.

 

[skeezerpleezer]

Okay good. I really don't want the color to change much. I think it's pretty now.

If you are planning to use Brett make sure you use cubes and not chips. They take longer to release flavor, which will give the Brett time to work. I usually use medium toast Hungarian or French. Personally, I like white wine like Chardonnay for sours, but if I have to actually the wine prefer a red like cab Sauv or Malbec.

Also, Brett doesn't need fermentables to impart flavor. There is enough other stuff it can chew on.

Smart gril! edit: then you couldn't sleep, you should have drank!

Coffee.

Quick question. I'm doing an all brett lambicus beer. How long do I need the starter to be going for to get enough to pitch? This is my first venture with brett and I'm honestly stumped on where to go with it. I'm thinking just some just 2 row, some crystal and some munich. Maybe some cascade hops.

Brett is slower, so I would probably give it at least a week or more on a stir plate. Maybe a couple weeks if no stir plate.

Obviously there are exceptions based on batch size, OG, yeast viability, etc.
