What I did for beer today

[grampamark]

Cleaned my Igloo cooler MLT for the first time in a long time. It actually did turn white again.

 

[Rish]

My smoked porter seems to be stuck at 1.030 so I roused it and put a heating pad on it.

 

[ba-brewer]

Kegged my last brew(czech pale lager) I got in before the end of last year. I mashed low but the yeast finished a bit high, it was new kind of malt so not sure if it was the malt or the yeast.

Replaced the filters on my RO filter system and cleaned the housings. The way the first sediment filter looked makes me think I should reconsider drinking the water straight from tap.

Just now moved a ton of crafting stuff into the house, from 1.5 weeks of doing nothing but making things from yarn. TL;DR, but my little grain mill table that I cut holes in happens to be the perfect size for my new circular knitting machines; poor Mighty Mill has been sitting in the corner for quite a bit wondering when it gets to come out and play. Just milled grain for tomorrow's brewday (new job now doesn't start until Monday, oh DARN another week off) that I've put off for too long. Bonus of new hobby/obsession; I have seven new warm hats, three new infinity scarves, and a pair of knitted fingerless gloves to keep me warm during brewday tomorrow (not all at the same time, that would be silly).

 

[VikeMan]

Kegged a clone of Rare Vos. Pic is an end of transfer sample.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Passivated the new Anvil bucket fermentor… Brew day is coming.

 

[South Arm Brew]

Cleaned my beer lines, a keg and organized my brewing equipment.

 

[grampamark]

Put together a recipe kit for a Wheat Ale to take to the city house so I can brew there next week.

 

[BrewZer]

Sighted beer; drank same.

Researched (again) the kegging system, from my LHBS, about $1k for a whole setup including 1-spigot kegerator.

Is it worth it, he asked himself, after another long pull from his glass of bottle-conditioned Amberspice Ale...?

Why wait?

 

[grampamark]

Why wait?

Because the pipeline is full here and it’s not at the other place.

 

[Section1]

Got some bottling done today

 

[grampamark]

My Blonde Ale keg kicked so I cleaned a keg today.

 

[seatazzz]

Pulled the PRV for what should be the last time on my latest lager; this one sat on the yeast, cold, for three weeks while I was busy with other things (anyone need a hat?). Later I'll keg the NEIPA that I brewed last weekend. Finally started new job today, gonna like it there after I get used to working again after being off for about 4 weeks.

 

[Langerz]

Looked longingly at my first ever batch in the fermenter

Ordered ingredients for batch two

Read a bit of How to Brew

Told myself repeatedly "no this is the first batch it isn't time to start upgrading equipment"

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

HBC club meeting was earlier tonight shared a sizable flip top bottle of mead and a 16oz bottle of beer. Working on getting some entries ready for shipping and getting organized for a brew day.

 

[BrewZer]

Drank a bottle of the Amberspice Ale whilst grilling kifta logs for dinner. Yum!

 

[aceluby]

Put a gallon of beer into growlers to make room for a NEIPA only to have my CO2 kick. So now I gotta swap tomorrow so I can get some pressure and actually taste this bugger

 

[ba-brewer]

Brewed a festbier today. Also stepped up a starter for a upcoming brew in a few days.

 

[bellhp]

delabeled two cases of bottles , Realized White labs wlp028 is sslllooowww .... two weeks into a batch of scottish ale and it's still not done fermenting . spent a buttload of money on grain / yeast / etc. for next batches from rite brew ... shipping was a bitch.

 

[grampamark]

Started brewing a Wheat Ale. Got as far as doughing in when the beer gods stopped looking out for me, as described elsewhere in this forum.

 

[Buckeye_Hydro]

I attempted to setup an RO system.
Buckeye hydro not working as advertised tho.

Just happened upon this post? Hopefully you contacted us. Did you get this situation squared away?

I picked up some new equipment on Sunday, so spent the Monday holiday moving and cleaning the garage brewspace. Looking forward to getting back to brewing, it's been almost a year since I had a new batch fermenting.

 

[BeerAndTele]

What I did for beer today (on Monday):

Brewed a pilsner ... well, if we're being strict, it's too dark to be a pilsner (it's 5.7 SRM) because I threw a bunch of Vienna malt in the bill ... but it's too hoppy/bitter to be a Vienna, so I'll call it a pilsner anyway.

Also, I failed to take a picture so I'll have to insert one of an old BIAB batch at mash-in.

 

[T Murph]

I finally finished the installation of my vent hood exhaust. Had to cut a hole in wall and mount the duct work. It's been a big task so it's time for one of the best IPAs in the SE USA. Lil ol brewery on the forgotten coast by the name of Oyster City. So now it's just me and an IPA.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Cooking some golden beets for an upcoming ale, and I checked on a small batch of mead that I didn’t think was fermenting (no airlock activity… I thought that perhaps the organic fruit juice I used perhaps has unlisted preservatives, well all is good, it’s tasty and clear and will make a nice nightcap. Strawberries in secondary here we come.

My day off turned into an all brewing day.

• Cleaned and replaced gaskets on 4 new (to me) kegs
• Kegged an american pale ale
• Brewed parti gyle:

2.5 gallons of Imperial Stout
4 gallons of dark Mild

aaand cleaned up after all of that

 

[BrewMan13]

Kicked the oatmeal stout, cleaned the keg and line, tapped the Baltic porter. Going to pull some of the porter soon and flavor it with coffee and vanilla for a friend at work.

 

[BrewZer]

Hubig's Revenge is in the bottle! Assistent Braulein and I got 51x12oz bottles out of the batch with no breaks, spills or sideways caps. This stuff is PFG. Now, as my caption says...

[WestMichiganSteelheader]

Bottled the barley wine I brewed on November 25, 2022. I missed the OG so the ABV is only 9.58.
