What I did for beer today

[aharri1]

Dialed in carbonation on my pumpkin imperial stout on vanilla beans. Taste more vanilla than pumpkin ATM.

Friday LHBS run, then grocery store for more brewing stuff and maybe we can eat as well.

 

[boxboybrewing]

Bottled my first Belgian Quad into 750ml bottles. And now we wait...

 

[Brewbuzzard]

I cleaned my filter to polish my American Lager.

 

[small_b_brewing]

I am doing a deep clean of my stuff, PBWing almost all of my brewing equipment in sequence, my gear is going to be sooooooo shiny!

 

[BrewMan13]

Racked my braggot to secondary...still super sweet, not as low of a FG as I was hoping, so made an emergency run to the LHBS for WLP099.
Also prepped stuff for the pumpkin ale tomorrow, including roasting the seeds. Going to roast the pumpkin in the morning and go right from the oven to the mash.

Yesterday I dry-hopped a PA for a buddy’s first-ever brew session and bottled my Red Rye.

Tasted my SMaSH (Maris Otter and Pacific Jade) and my oatmeal stout aged with oak and Irish whiskey.

And signed up for a home brew club-local brewery partnership opportunity to brew a barley wine on their 5bbl system.

Almost forgot; I will be smoking my malt for a traditional porter as soon as the football game is over, hehe, priorities.

Been a good weekend!

Not sure why you need a filter to do that. I usually use these hops to Polish my American Lager.

^ padam, tsssss....

Bottled my orange IIPA. Cloudiest beer I've bottled so far, dunno if it's the orange juice or the mahoosive amount of dry hops that went into this, we'll give it a month and report back.

 

[orionol73]

Brewed a batch of Pale Ale that used up some freezer hops

 

[jiMithing83]

Cleaned out a keg that kicked yesterday (and the lines), then kegged my Thanksgiving ale. It's fantastic based on the fg sample, can't wait for it to be carbed!

What's a German IPA?

Just guessing, a kolsch or an alt with lots of German hops.....

Well, I use half German pilsner malt half us to row and I use Magnum and Nelson sauvin for the schedule and I dry hop with halleteur mittelfrueh. 1oz of each

Filtering my American Lager, finally.

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

Added some Superfood to my Tarty Cherry Mead and degassed. Has to push out the Lambic brewing to sometime later this week.

[Tulsahomebrewer]

First Hefeweizen 2 Gal batch + Home Depot parts for blowoff tube assembly + new fermenting fridge!!!

 

[ronson92]

Today I'll bottle a weizenbock that is my brewery's first anniversary beer

 

[pshankstar]

Took a gravity sample on my American Barleywine. Started off at 1.107 and is currently at 1.031. Yeast was pitched on 10/19. Bumped the temp up in the fermentation chamber to get the yeast to drop a few more points. I hope it can get to 1.025ish, for the sample was still a bit sweet to me.

 

[jaymosbeershack]

Just took a gravity reading from my american amber, finished right at 6%. Kegging it later and making a starter of Voss Kveik for the breakfast stout tomorrow.

 

[Novacor]

Cleaned the lines in my kegerator so that I can tap my pumpkin ale tonight.

 

[aharri1]

Zip-tied my thermometer probe in my Kegerator to a can of beer to get a better reading lol

 

[davidabcd]

Bottled my first Belgian Quad into 750ml bottles. And now we wait...

did you use corks and those wire holders or did you cap?
I ask because I get Belgian regularly in the 750ml bottles. Very thick. I would consider corking.

 

[davidabcd]

I posted this elsewhere. It was some days ago but I roused the yeast in my stout because it was sitting in too cold of an area. Brought it upstairs and it finished carbing rapidly. Still needs to condition though.

 

[Schlenkerla]

Moved my Irish Red Ale smoked with pistachio shells to a keg. The taste is very nice, the slight smoke will come out with CO2!

 

[BikerMatt]

Trying to find all the info I can about eisbeer. Dunno what the law says about that in the states but found out today it`s totally legal here (unlike hot distilling) Intriqued to give it a go during the winter.

I believe Brew Dog was big on those I would start looking there from what I understand you freeze the beer slowly and before it fully freezes you take the "condensed" beer out but I never looked into them honestly

 

[BikerMatt]

Yea that`s the idea, my plan is to freeze the entire fermenter before bottling and scoop up the icy slosh from the top a few times but cannot find an answer to whether or not the yeast will survive this or if I should re-pitch when racking to a bottling bucket.

 

[jaymosbeershack]

Kegged a batch of American Amber. Cleaned stuff. Brewed a batch of breakfast stout. Cleaned more stuff. And now i will drink another beer while i clean even more stuff.
