What I did for beer today

[ApolloSimcoe]

Brewed an American Classic IPA. Centennial for days! I'm doing this in my newly modified Fermonster

 

[Brewbuzzard]

Cleaned and sanitized 5 kegs

 

[bracconiere]

well...i just got done scrubing the toilet, but that's not what you guys want to hear about!

they also were out of whole barley at the feed store, so i picked a bag of whole wheat to make different roasted wheat crystal malts with, to see how they work out....

 

[bracconiere]

i should have posted this picture to get the toilet out of your head....this is how i do small batches of malt for crystals, just soak for a few hours then close the lid and put it on it's side to drain then open it up to breath, 10 min soak every day there after till proper acrospire...

(this is how i also make use of both bathtubs at the same time)

 

[Immocles]

Bottled a case of an azacca hopped pale ale and ten bottles of an English hopped ale. Both sampled well. Azacca is one of my favorites. Mmm. Hoping to brew and refill a fermenter or two later this week!

 

[fourfarthing]

Boxes for some folks

 

[brewbama]

Kegged a Pale Ale.

 

[BrewMan13]

Did the bio-tranformation dryhop on my NEIPA a couple days ago. Certainly looks the part at this point, hopefully it tastes good.

 

[Footballandhops]

Added yeast to my lacto souring gose this AM, ph was 3.3 last night, probably lower this morning, just didn’t check

 

[jiMithing83]

Since my job (high school teacher) hasn’t allowed me a brew day since January 2, decided to go sort of halfway on it.

Brewed up 1gallon of LDME in order to capture the dregs from:
1, a couple of bottles of Duvel Tripel Hop Citra
2, a bottle of Duchesse de Bourgogne Flemish Red
3, a bottle of Panil Barriquee, an Italian sour
and
4, a bottle of Roen Pale Ale, an unfiltered organic PA from Italy

We shall see what grows.

And...

Tasted my two aging sours. Both are swabs and fruit samples from various places in the respective cities:

Torrance, CA tastes nicely sour, could be more tart, but it’s nice.

Burbank, CA still tastes likes baby diaper. Could be Walt Disney's fault, not sure.

And received 3 oz of Cryo hops I *had* to buy to make up the $25 minimum free ship order for SWMBO’s stuff, wink wink nudge nudge know what I mean?

At some point I plan to try to harvest some wild yeast from the channel islands. I think I've missed the opportunity for this year though.

Dragged my kegerator 200 miles across state lines to share 20 gallons of home brew on a golf and fishing vacation with friends. Not nearly enough to keep 6 guys going for a week, but mixes it up a bit for my miller lite drinking friends!

 

[Immocles]

5 gallon Tangerine ravine kit that I purchased about four months ago

 

[pshankstar]

Ran the twine for my Chinooks today. Some of the bines are about two feet tall already! Woohoo!!

 

[aharri1]

Pruned these hop plants back about a week or so ago and they are already like this good Lord. They also have a friend to help eat bugs off of them!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

“Cleaned” and prepped the barrel I emptied a few weeks ago — it needs to be filled with stout! (I need to brew said stout)

 

[6Tap]

I received confirmation that I am entered in a contractors Homebrew ipa competition. Fingers crossed on my 9th revision results for June 1st!

 

[aharri1]

Brewed an IPL Sunday. Going strong at 52 degrees right now. Used my homegrown triple pearl hops for aroma and I'm dry hopping with them too

 

[BikerMatt]

Rubbing my palms together going eeexxxxxellentttttt...

Just found out I'll be getting a fairly sizeable surprise tax return at the start of july so immediately started looking at brew rigs salivating... Got a bead on a 40L Brewster Beacon or a Bullet Brew 45. The mere thought of getting two fermenters on one go is giving me a halfsie

 

[seatazzz]

Not today but last night, new sight glass for keggle arrived. And then discovered the two holes already drilled in my keggle were too big for the weldless fitting, so two trips (yes two, because dumba** me forgot the 1/4" brass nipple I needed, thank ninkasi it's only 5 minutes away) to HD later and now it's all set up and ready to go for the next brewday...which won't be until next payday because out of grain (sad face). But have plenty to do in the meantime what with kegging an IPA, dismantling the ball valve in the mash tun and cleaning that out, and moving the way-too-fast-growing hops to their new home in the now-fixed-fenced backyard. Oh, and drinking my homebrew.

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

After work will whip up a US-05 starter for my Miller Lite cream ale I am brewing tomorrow.

 

[bracconiere]

think it went a day over...but i put my sprouted wheat in my modded oven at 150f, to convert before drying....

 

[BrewZer]

Bottled my Ale-luia American Amber Ale. FG 1.009 for a 4.8 ABV, nice and dark golden brown and probably my clearest beer yet. Clean finish with just slight hints of hoppiness from the late-add Saaz... can't wait to taste it carbonated! Got 28 x 22 oz bottles, and probably could have had one more, but I didn't want to transfer any yeast rafts into the bottling bucket.

 

[ListerH]

Ordered my first charred oak barrel... barrel aging here I come!!!

 

[Yeastieboy]

Today I shared beer with my neighbor over the fence.

 

[aharri1]

Took a sample of my IPL I brewed Sunday. Went from 1.058 to 1.019 in 5 days at 52 deg. Pitched a 2.5L starter lol

 

[BikerMatt]

Today I shared beer with my neighbor over the fence.

Neighbors are the best. Just last night got a text from mine saying hey wanna buy this beer case off me for cheaps? And it's 5.2% where normal store beer is 4.7% here.

 

[Beardless]

Trub dumped my IPA, starting to cold crash and force carb in my @SpikeBrewing CF10.

 

[Novacor]

Started cold crashing my black IPA so I can get it into a keg soon. Poor planning on my part has left me with nothing on tap.

 

[BikerMatt]

Washed and sanitized siphon and one fermentor to be used as a bottling bucket, did the the priming sugar solution which is cooling right now, still got the bottles to sanitize but luckily those have been washed and stored capped. When I get the meerkats to bed gonna hit the garage for a bottling session. After that got a sink full of bottles to rinse after soaking in chlorine, and once that is done gonna put the next batch of dirties to soak.

 

[6Tap]

I plan on drinking at this craft beer event today! [emoji482]
