What I did for beer today

[urbanmyth]

I took some hydro samples of my brews in primary, planned a couple recipes on Hopville, and emailed a guy on Craigslist about a cooler to convert into a mash tun.

 

[ClayHenry]

Picked up some propane for tomorrow's brew day.

 

[android]

bought and drank some of the new sierra nevada Ruthless Rye IPA.

 

[Komodo]

I put 55 12oz bottles in a mild oxyclean solution for an overnight bath in prep for bottling my first lager tomorrow..

God bless you. I hate doing that crap.

 

[Komodo]

weighed hops, bagged hops, sold hops, created hops spreadsheet, and had to drink a budlight because i spent to much time and energy on hops to clean beer lines and tap another corny of homebrew

God bless you, you are doing us all a favor.

 

[Komodo]

I drank one of my homebrews, trolled HBT, printed a Damnation clone recipe to see how close mine is, and talked to a pro stainless welder about some serious brew welding plans.

 

[homebeerbrewer]

Picked up some propane for tomorrow's brew day.

Thank you for reminding me, I need to do that tomorrow. I'm brewing on Tuesday. Or, as I'm now calling it, Brewsday.

Working at a homebrew shop is costing me money...


[edit] It snowed today, which slowed business down, so we brewed an imperial stout today. We had a 33 pound jug of dark LME arrive with a puncture wound, so we used about 12 pounds for a 5 gallon batch. O.G. was 1.090.

Picked up propane and some valves to upgrade my Mash Tun and HLT. Bottled 5 gallons of Caramel Amber Ale, cleaned up, brewed 5 gallons of Raging Irish Red, subbed Hellertau for Crystal, drank some Dampf Beer and cleaned up.

I just got the BK on the stove with about 3 gallons of water at 9:17am. Gunna brew my sunset gold apa with Ahtanum & Sterling hops.

 

[DakotaRules]

The one and only!

I thought so cause I read you were bored at work and brewed a stout! To funny!

 

[BrakeleyBrewing]

I'm soaking some pry-off bottles to remove the labels and enjoying an Imperial Stout that I bottled in the beginning of November.

 

[spearko520]

sour mashed last nite for a berliner weisse today. letting the lacto get a head start with the heating pad on... pitch tonite, or tomorrow if i get too drunk fatching wootball

 

[ronclark]

Just pitched the yeast in a Belgian Dubbel. Now for the long wait of fermentation and bottle conditioning before I can drink one.

 

[DubBrew]

I made a yeast starter of wlp001 for my bells two hearted clone.

 

[spearko520]

just pitched a sacc on top of that berliner weisse. Those lacto critters were crawling and it smelled like sour heaven (no meat or baby vomit). you got lucky this time, spearko.

 

[stbnj]

I had to add hot water to the bin my carboy is in. I pitched my yeast at 4PM yesterday and placed it in a tub of tap water, ambient temp is around 67 in my house. When I woke up at 4AM, fermentation was going but the carboy said it was about 58 degrees, not ideal but this method should be useful come spring and summer. Since 1450 likes it around 64 I decided to add some hot water to raise up the temp.

 

[Gear101]

Drove 10hrs in a car

 

[Daybis]

I checked my gravities on my first pilsner. Sitting at 1.022 and it tastes pretty dang good.

 

[whitehause]

Built a stir plate so my yeasties can get their groove on:fro: Gota go put on some Barry White now.

 

[TomSD]

My Blichmann burner arrived today... weather is crappy though so no playing with the new toy for a couple days.

 

[onthekeg]

I racked 10 gals of beer to the keg and dry hopped the bastages..

 

[overdbus]

[dcHokie]

Drove 10hrs in a car

Dang...10 hours, I'm curious

 

[nrock74]

Checked my American Wheat, ordered 10 gal worth of spotted cow supplies, dry hopped my Hopslam clone & had a few of my brews.

 

[Qhrumphf]

Mourned my empty fermenters, and tried a new commercial beer (Monk's Cafe Flemish Sour) and loved it.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Second dry hop addition to my IPA, smells delicious with the first addition and going to be awesome. Bottling next week and patiently waiting for it to be done
