What I did for beer today

[razyrsharpe]

Bought my bro and I a digital kitchen scale. And I created a pale ale recipe for this weekend.

I've been brewing for many years and I live in brew-town, so it's a surprise that I never did this until yesterday: I went to a brewpub and they have windows into the brewery. I went and admired the toys, and followed the line from mash tun to boil kettle to big pump to massive plate chiller to fermenter. The owner?brewer? noticed me looking and we chatted for a bit. That was kinda cool.

 

[razyrsharpe]

shopped successfully for specialty grains for my American PA. got a starter of WLP001 going. prepped for the brew day tomorrow. happy b'day me.

 

[Peruvian802]

Dry hopped an IPA.

Made a starter for Sundays APA brew day

 

[JonM]

I'm visiting Oklahoma, so my SIL and I just went to get a collection of nice local brews for later while we all watch Wisconsin basketball.

Received my kit and all extras in the mail. 10 chapters through Palmer's "How To Brew" now and going to attempt my first brew tomorrow. Can't wait!

I sacrificed a pint of hobgoblin ale over my homebrewed Saison for beer battered fish and chips tonight.

I really didn't know where else to put this fact; I just feel the need to admit to the community that, on my laptop, the bookmark to HomeBrewTalk is renamed "BeerPorn."

Thank you for listening.

I worked up a recipe to try to clone Alaskan Hopothermia. Should be a good brew this weekend.

Thanks for sharing....

 

[Thetonymartin]

Started making a chalk board tap handle today, and fixed (temporarily) my foamy kegerator pours by shooting CO2 into the "out" post.

And I got my Homebrewtalk.com stickers in the mail! Cheers.

 

[Clankenbrew]

Im going to keg and bottle an Irish Red when I feel motivated.

 

[unionrdr]

Yeah, it looks like I'll finally get to bottle the kottbusser today. Just too busy yesterday with the car, birthday & such.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Dry hopped zombie dust and brewing up my DIPA. Might even get in bottling my white ipa today too if I have the time.

 

[catdaddy66]

Bought 2#'s of crystal 60 for some future IPA's I'll brew. Also got more whirfloc tabs. I am going to bottle my CDA this weekend, Monday at the latest.

 

[Ski12568]

Made a 1 gallon Pliny clone yesterday to give it a taste

Hey now - there's a confessions thread for that kind of thing.

 

[philipCT]

Today, for the cause of beer, I awoke early, made a big waffles and eggs breakfast for the family, and cleaned up the kitchen afterward.

And for this, I will brew without harassment tomorrow :rockin:

 

[max384]

I didn't actually do this today; I did it last week...

Swapped out my standard faucets for Perlicks.

WOW! What an upgrade!!!

 

[Ski12568]

Made a review of my new grain mill over at my blog. Well worth it.

 

[unionrdr]

Got the priming solution cooling for the kottbusser finally. Had a bottle of Oculto & some vodka to ease my back & hip pain to get to bottling. Wife wouldn't let oldest mutli-handicapped son watch cable upstairs, so I got to babysit a 33 year old with the mind of a 10 year old all day. At least he likes this old house & victory garden.

Finally finished my grain mill! :rockin:

Something I've been meaning to do for a few weeks now and just in time for my first all-grain brew day tomorrow!

 

[NewJersey]

I assembled my keggles and cleaned them today. Had a friend do the cut and weld and just got em back this week. Screwing in the valves and thermometers was tedious, but cleaning em out thoroughly with barkeepers friend took forever. Took too long so i didnt brew today

Kegged a Weizen Bock. Should be ready for the beautiful Spring Daze!

 

[unionrdr]

Got my kottbusser bottled. Got 52-12oz bottles. Funny tha the beer was only slightly misty. Cloudy FG sample was due to the fact that the spigot was almost completely plugged. And it sits higher than the other Fv or the bottling bucket? That grain mill looks really different. Hopper reminds me of the old metal jugs grandpa had.

I suppose that differentiates it from your actual porn tab...

 

[govner1]
