What I did for beer today

[fimpster]

I brewed 7 gallons of a tweaked version of CYBI Dead Guy, split 3.5 gallons into two different 5 gallon carboys and pitched WLP090 San Diego Super yeast in one and WLP001 California Ale in the other.

 

[Jadub]

I carb'd an Amarillo Bitter and stripped 24bottles of their labels for my Ten Fidy clone thats still in the fermenter

Bottling an ESB and sipping an IIPA...

I brewed my 2nd BIAB - 4.5 gallons of Citra pale ale. Numbers look much better than the first time.

 

[Qhrumphf]

Racked my Old Ale to secondary, added oak that'd been soaking in Tawny Port, along with Brett C. It'll sit for a year. Bottled my Winter Warmer.

 

[ChelisHubby]

Bought a Blonde for her and some Bombers for the fermenting porter, I got to drink faster and then I brew faster. How does this end?

 

[NTXBrauer]

Got a Czech Pils Ale rolling today. This one kicked off fast.

It's been a fun beer day today.

-bought a small scale at Target for grain weighing
-tasted my Scottish Ale which had been bottle conditioning since Sept 9th and I am very happy with it.
-placed labels on 2 cases of the above bottles of home brew.
-racked a Wietzenbier to secondary on top of blackberries for my next brew
-currently drinking a Wheat home brew my buddy made and gave me a sample 6 pack of.

Cleaned this guy (craigslist find) out finally after a week of painting, cleaned all the taps and ball lock fittings, installed my new silver lining tubing, and getting ready to tap the first beer off my new system!!!

A SNPA clone with a big ass hop stand at the end...and nothing yet! Got a dunkleweizen ready to keg and a hoppy amber fermenting

Brewed up a nice batch of an Irish Death clone. It was my first batch outside with my old stove and kettle. I am working my way to doing all grain soon. It was also my sons birthday so we had a family BBQ. It turned about to be a great day.

Took a first FG sample of my dampfbier version 2 @ 11:22AM. It's down to 1.012 2 days shy of 3 weeks. The cool part is, though, that when I removed the airlock center piece to use the spigot to fill the hydrometer tube, it sucked back a little. The center piece had just settled all the way down this morning. Filling the tube, I saw that the yeast was only then starting to settle out. I never caught it at that exact moment before. Letting it settle out in the tube now, I'm seeing the light amber/orange color I was working on. The German beer institute site only had one pic of a commercial example & it looks like it'll be pretty close this time so far.

Flash was a bit bright, finally got it to turn off. Old friggin camera.

Looked in the drying rack this morning before work. Noticed my Starter Flask is breaking/broken. Annoyed. But at least now I have an excuse to get one that has a more flat-ish bottom and will not sound like a dice game when its on the 'stir plate'

 

[CJ-3]

Today I put labels on 2 cases of home brew.

 

[fimpster]

Assembled the fittings on my new chugger, attached Camlocks to all my hoses, kettle and tun.

 

[Michael357]

Did the first SG reading on my Honey Bee American Light. ABV is at 6.56%. Will check it again on Friday. If it's the same, will bottle Saturday.

 

[Komocabo]

Filled 2 growlers for my buddy's bachelor party tonight!!

 

[philipCT]

Put a second step on my starter for Saturday's brew session.

Started with one 1056 Smack Pack into a 1750ml starter 3 days ago. That did well, so I cold-crashed it. Now it's all settled out at the bottom, I'm going to decant the top beer and add another 1750ml starter I just made.

By Saturday I should have about 500Bn cells to pitch into a 10 gallon batch of Dale's Pale Ale clone.

 

[user 198378]

Started a 1 gallon batch of cinnamon Apfelwein

 

[metanoia]

I've spent the last week planning out a year's worth of brewing (28 batches), which means charting how much malt, hops, and yeast I'll need. Also cleaning up all of my recipes to make them uniform. Itching to brew again but have to wait until next weekend.

 

[DanzigsMISFITS]

Ignored it and let it stay in primary... hit that point where i can set it and forget it

 

[gometz]

Nothing...

I am off next week so I am debating whether I should brew an imperial porter, baltic porter, or maybe a saison (with a partial sour mash). Or maybe two different beers... I guess I could make 5.5 gal of the baltic porter, let it sit in the temperature controlled fridge, make the partial sour mash saison and ferment it in my warm room. Just need to make sure I am not using up a carboy I will need in the near future.

 

[unionrdr]

Picked up some S-04 yeast for the ESB I wanna brew this weekend. Got the wife a couple sizes of bottle brushes she wanted too.

Do they charge you now or when they ship?

EDIT. You took too long Mark. 1lb of mosaic is pre-ordered

Put step two of the Wyeast 2206 Bavarian Lager starter in the fridge to cold crash prior to Saturday's brew day.

 

[schiersteinbrewing]

Racked AHS Shot In The Dark and SMASH Marris Otter/Cascade into kegs and put kegs on gas. Also cleaned the carboys.
