What I did for beer today

[DankHead]

Dry hopped my pale ale yesterday. This one's for a company BBQ, and its gonna be awesome.

 

[boxofjibboo]

Took the fan out of a computer, the magnets out of the hard drive, found an old 9v adapter, bought the box and rheostat from RadioShack, built my stir plate!

 

[lactardjosh]

I bottled 43 bottles of beer...I lost quite a bit along the way with this batch.

 

[thisoneguy]

Fixed a super tiny slow leak in one of my keezer's gas lines.

 

[berebrando]

i added eli madyson cab s. wine to a mason jar with 2 oz of oak cubes (x2, one with french oak medium, and one with american oak medium).

 

[BrewinHooligan]

Printed out forms and labels to enter my Baltic Porter and California Common in my homebrew clubs Octoberfest competition. Can't wait to get feedback

 

[srans]

I added another keg in my kegerator

 

[jperry]

Found out that my propane tank was leaking and exchanged it for a new one.

 

[duckredbeard]

Talked to the manager of a local soda plant and negotiated the most insane price for a handful of soda kegs.

 

[Nightshade]

Brewing a Hefe

 

[Qhrumphf]

Picked up a pound of Citra wet hops I'd ordered earlier in the summer from my LHBS. Milling grains now for an all-Citra wet hop Imperial Red.

 

[Hulud]

Got some stuff to finish my second keezer

 

[Spicemon1972]

Went to my homebrew club meeting and sipped (read drank) some very fine, stylistically diverse homebrews produced by a bunch of great guys and girls.

 

[acidrain]

Made $50 for going to a company CPR training, so...
stopped by a previously un-visited homebrew store and picked up a really cool, long SS turkey baster to use as a thief.
Got home to test it out with water (to see if one bulb sample was enough to fill my test tube). Knocked the test tube over on my granite counter top and broke it. Now I'll have to buy another. Thinking about getting a refractometer too.

 

[allenH]

Kegged 10gal Centennial Blonde for my sons 1st birthday party next Saturday. Moved my co2 tank outside of the fridge, took 30 minutes, why didn't I do this sooner?

So maybe you made a triple IPA?? New category! :cross:

I was so frightened that I had to dilute it. It still looks like it's going to be a hoppy monster. Not sure I could handle a triple Ipa.

Racked a Pale Ale from primary to secondary. I have another batch that was started 6 days ago that I was also going to rack to secondary, but when I lifted the lid of the fermentation pail, there's still a thick head of creamy foam (krausen?) on top, so I'm going to wait for that to dissipate before racking that batch to secondary.

 

[govner1]

Brewed my third batch of the week- an all Columbus IPA.

 

[JohnnySardonic]

Bottling a test batch of pumpkin ale and ridding the world of some Ballast Point

 

[brewtus_]

I made a yeast starter for an IPA tomorrow.

 

[jperry]

Tried cleaning the dry-hopping gunk ring, out of my better bottle. It took forever and still has small spots i cant get out by soaking. Now im gonna go dry-hop the same beer.

 

[Aschecte]

Brewed a smoked maple brown ale made with home smoked 2 row using hickory. Helped a brew friend clean out 8 ball lock corny kegs he just got for a great price. Helped said friend put together a pale ale recipe and hooked him up with some ingridients ( he is just starting out brewing ) introduced him to edworts apflewein and had to give him another bottle and recipe to brew that as well.

 

[cdeme123]

Brewed a pumpkin spice ale.

 

[leftcontact]

Picked up supplies for a DFH Shelter clone

 

[davekippen]

I did the most I've ever done for beer in one day. Bottled 2 different batches. Washed yeast from one of those. Installed a dip tube in the bottling bucket. Got 50% done with my ebay temp controller build. Brewed a Two Hearted clone. Oh and drank a few. Long day!

 

[Mrkeller]

I brewed my second batch of beer today. Brewers best Witbier and I drank quite a few.

 

[iambeer]

I patronized breweries and their local distributors. I consumed the products and liked it.

 

[duckredbeard]

Cleaned two kegs and two carboys. Saved the homebrew for later, drank wine instead.

 

[Aschecte]

Bottled some wine then a lot of hardcore cleaning for my beer an wine equipment.
