What I did for beer today

[SupervisingChildren]

Racking a batch of blonde onto strawberries, pineapple and lactose, and rebrewing the base beer. Also starting to collect brett dregs.

After finding my Irish red I brewed on NHBD had gone up to 77F on Sunday, I trained my fan on it in 2nd gear. It went down to 70F yesterday, & down to 66F by this morning. It started life at 63F when I pitched the rehydrated S-04 on it. That yeast is usually pdq anyway. But I'll have to give it some clean up time this go around. I've had it finish & start clearing my ESB in 10 days flat before. From now on, I think I'll train that fan on the fermenters not too long after pitch time to keep the temps down.
But, to answer the question further, I got approved for a home depot credit card. So my tax money stays in my pocket & use the card for kitchen repairs. Mo' beer, mo' beer! :rockin:

 

[Oceantendency]

Doing my First Dry Hopping, so I boiled 2 muslin bags, stuffed them with some Fuggles loose raw flowers, and hand tossed in the rest into my conical, interested in seeing how this will come out. 1 oz total went in.

Last two nights in a row I visited, and made a scientific inquiry, into two Bangalore brewpubs. Conclusion: the guys at Toits really know something about brewing - really great renditions of classic English IPA and Irish Red.

 

[govner1]

Picked up the grain, hops, & yeast for my next three brews- Edmund Fitzgerald Porter, Lemonada IPA, & Belgian IPA.

 

[BGBC]

Brewed a Berliner and racked a golden sour last night. No boil and only cooling to around 90F really saves time on brew day, haha.

 

[1fast636]

Got supplies for double brew day mango passion fruit wheat beer fermented with American ale yeast and a Berliner style sour using gigas fast souring lacto and finishing off fermentation with 001

Got a new toy to ph meter can't wait to use it oh and the heat pad and the large syphone but most excited for the ph meter

[day_trippr]

Kegged a stout, racked a Trappist refectory ale to retrieve the wy3787, and dry-hopped a strong dark. Then I weeded the hop beds and cut out the runners.

Then I hit the taps.

Good day for beer-related activities...

Cheers!

 

[Pkrd]

Filled my first keg, citra zythos IPA.

 

[Oceantendency]

I brewed my English Brown Ale recipe Chicken Chap Brown Ale and bottled/kegged my Anglish Sippah, my first English IPA...dayum I love clean Dry English Ale yeast finishes out..so clean.

 

[bmorosco]

Sounds fantastic I have never heard of a Anglish Sippah

 

[govner1]

Swapped out two kegs that kicked for a Dry Stout & JBI Blonde, re-plumbed my new Taprite regulator w/ new clamps w/ assistance from my LHBS, ordered a new keggle MLT w/ bottom drain & SS false bottom.

 

[Pkrd]

Got my kegerator up and running.

Best invention ever.

 

[unionrdr]

Straightening up the man cave/brewery a bit more this morning. Son & his fiance are coming over for mother's day for a bit to take pictures.

 

[kman6234]

Kegged an ESB and cleaned out the conical. Need to carb up the ESB asap for NHC

 

[unionrdr]

A cold front is supposed to come through starting wednesday for a couple days. So I'll be brewing my newer version of my whiskely stout. Also taking a 1st FG sample of the irish red.

 

[1fast636]

Brewed an American wheat yesterday fermenting with American ale yeast then "dry fruiting" with fresh mango and passion fruit purée

Today will be brewing a Mother's Day request of a fast sour using gigas fast sour lacto and then finishing off the fermentation with 001 should be fun can't wait

 

[catdaddy66]

I put myself in a bind.

Made my IPA last weekend and haven't had but 3 beers of my pipeline so far! And as any good home brewer knows, that means I'll have to double time the drinking to free up enough bottles to bottle that IPA.

The real bind is that I'm making a Scottish 80 today and will look to bottle in 3 weeks!

I guess I'll drink myself to bed, so I bitter start early each evening.

 

[1977Brewer]

Dry hopped my mosaic IPA. Wanted the citrus character to pop do I threw some cascade in too.

[amiller]

Picked up a 9gal pot, propane burner, and some yeast, hops and grain. Going to brew my first BIAB all grain batch tomorrow, BM Centennial Blonde. Can't wait!

 

[unionrdr]

Shipped out a beer for comparison purposes a lil bit ago. Gunna be cooler for a few days starting tomorrow, so maybe brew my whiskely stout then? Need a couple cooler days for initial fermentation.

 

[biochemedic]

Kegged my Red X Weimea SMaSH...Tasty base malt!

 

[ECKraus]

Currently looking through a Blue Moon recipe. A friend of mine would like to try it out himself.

Let's see where this goes.

 

[1977Brewer]

i sucked off my neighboor for a beer not my proudest moment but it was worth it!

Oh good you came back.

 

[Psylocide]

14 month of conditioning and off flavor still overwhelming.

Another loaf of spent grain bread. I've kept the grain in tupperware in the fridge without issue.
