What I did for beer today

[Temptd2]

Did the mash for a Vienna lager wannabe, will be made with Nottingham though and fermented at about 60*. We call it Evil Twin here!

 

[tjmac5071]

Picked up some new equipment off of Craigslist. A lot of it was backups of stuff I had but such a good deal I couldn't pass it up.

Kegged a Brooklyn Summer ale clone which is for next Sunday at my in-laws. It is St. Patrick's day on the Monday and they are 25 years in the house, so a bbq/session is the order of the day. Beer tasted very nice too

 

[brewbama]

Took hydrometer readings on pri and sec fermenters. Added isenglass to the sec in anticipation of kegging in a few days.

Transferred my Dunkelweisen bomb to it's secondary and brewed my first Belgian Blondie. Did all the Honeydoos and now I'm chillin' with Biere De Boucher on tap, Life is good!

 

[creepyjackalope]

Took a hydrometer reading of my first all grain batch. Was bang on 1.01. Dry hopped it with 2 oz. of Mosaic. Smelling fantastic, sample tastes pretty damned good, about to celebrate that minor victory with a bottle of my previous batch, a citra hopped saison, which has finally carbed up after a stupid bottling goof.

 

[Hopinista]

Opened a sample of my Bière de Garde. 1 week in the bottle. No carb yet but it's tasting really amazing

 

[jfusaro]

Sampled my Belgian strong ale, well on it way, should be ready by Christmas and its casked.
Transferred an ale to the secondary and started cleaning/sanitizing some kegs for tomorrows kegging of the stout.

 

[DrunkleJon]

Cleaned/sanitized 2 kegs and then filled them up with 10 Gal of a Buffalo Sweat clone. GOOD GOD this is a tasty beer. Even uncarbed. I hope I can hold off long enough for it to get carbed because I really want to tap that keg already.

Put 5 gallons, which had been fermenting in a bucket for two weeks, into bottles. Now, I have to figure out the storage for the mead, which will be in secondary for 1-3+ months, followed by a year of aging.

Transferred my Alaskan Amber clone. Then about four hours later had to make a quick run to my LHBS and buy a blow off tube. Fermentation kicked off again pretty fast and harder than I expected.

Now that my fermenter is empty I am looking for a good Hefe recipe to brew next weekend.

 

[Guden]

Bottled about half my batch of Dubbel, with the other half moving to secondary where it was blended with spices and a gallon of my Quad. The remaining 4 gallons of quad were then also racked to secondary. Since I was doing so much already I decided to also move my Saison to secondary and harvest the yeast cake.

Put my keezer on wheels and added some cheap 1.19 black board tags on my faucets.

I'm gonna be adding gelatin to my IIPA tonight. I started to cold crash it yesterday because I'd read that gelatin works better when the beer is cold when it's added. Will probably bottle this weekend and brew my next beer.

 

[govner1]

Cleaned a keg that blew last night and the lines. Transferred my Hopsecutioner clone from secondary & dry hopping to a keg to condition.

Hello fellow brewmeisters, I bottled my Light Hybrid Blonde Ale on Saturday and today I checked on it. I have 40 plastic bottles in two cardboard boxes in a bathroom shower tub.
Today they look as if they are resting nicely. They appear to have some corn sugar and/or yeast in the bottom. I slosh it around and disappears with a minimum of air bubbles and fizz. The bottles are not bulging. They are a little cloudy. I'm hoping they don't explode.
This is my first batch of home-brew.

 

[masonsjax]

I swapped out the blow-off tube for an airlock on my Bugfarm Beer.

 

[Dutchbier]

Washed bottles and brewed first ever lager, an all grain golden lager. Drank a Victory Dirt Wolf IIPA. First outdoor brew day in three months!

Sounds like you transferred more yeast than you needed but they will be fine. If you let them sit at least 3 weeks, refrigerate at least 2 days, and pour very carefully, they will be pretty clear.

 

[rwgaro]

Bought labelizer and made a label for my first brew (after not brewing for 9 months). Came up w/ a cheesy "brewery" name too that I hope sticks..

 

[dryboroughbrewing]

Busted out my angle grinder and chopped a hole in a metal table I had lying around to mount my brand new monster mill 2.0 on.

 

[govner1]

Racked my Award Winning American IPA to secondary & dry hopped w/ 1.25 oz Cascade. Also bought the ingredients for a Chocolate Stout & Redheaded Rye Child Amber plus a new 15 gal BK @ my LHBS.

 

[Hello]

I walked my dog which means I get to have a beer.

My in laws and my mother are coming in to town....I'm counting that!

I just smashed the hell out of my finger. I deserve one as well.

 

[finsfan]

Took a gravity sample of my gose, made another step starter for conan, and de-labeled and cleaned 50 bottles.
