What I did for beer today

[aharri1]

Kegged my halo halo milkshake IPA and put it on gas. Put all the ingredients used in the Filipino dessert halo halo with lactose and vanilla beans. It's for my club contest on Friday. Fruit flavors all came through and has a creamy mouthfeel. Hit 8%. Goal was 6.5. First attempt at this style but I think its going to be really good!

If you want a NY’er opinion on it, message me and I’ll try a bottle or two for honest feedback. [emoji6]
Sounds good! Keep us posted on how the contest goes!

It should be carbed up Thursday! I will let you guys know!!

Started planning my next two beers. A Stella clone for my father in law and a goose for my sour tap on the kegerator.

Trimmed hops.

Brewing my IPA as an all grain for the first time. It may end up as a DIPA, depends on efficiency. It’ll have summit to bitter and mosaic/citra for flavor and aroma at 15, WP, and DH. Should be fermented and carbed by July 4th!

EDIT: it turned out to be DIPA. I mashed for 90 minutes and got great efficiency. It was even 1/2 gallon more beer than I thought I was going to get.

Airlock sniffing.

Looks like I need to work on my hops too. Need to reroute some bines.

 

[pshankstar]

Watered my hops. Chinook is what’s pictured.

Milkshake IPA sample. All my fruit flavors came through! It's excellent

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

Second DH for the NEEPAH today, then 48 hours and package.

 

[seatazzz]

Planned to keg my American strong last night, but surprise nap put the kibosh on it. At least got to taste it, and will get it kegged up tonight, and should have enough to bottle off a few for competitions.

 

[brewbama]

Brewed a 5 gal batch

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

Will clean some equipment to package my NEEPAH tomorrow, and drink some beers to free up some bottles.

 

[JAReeves]

Put compost on the entire yard, especially the hops. Some are up to 1’ of growth per day.

Edit: dry hopped the DIPA. Citra and Mosaic. Smells reeeaal nice.

Checked FG on my red rye. 1.010, ready to bottle at 7.9% alcohol. I am going to need to lower the grain bill on my recipes if I keep getting 75+% efficiency!

 

[6Tap]

Harvested a few Cascade and Columbus hops yesterday.
I’m thinking session beer once they dry out.. [emoji482][emoji482]

 

[CJ-3]

Had a friend over and walked him through his first homebrew. He made a Belgian Wit

 

[Pkrd]

Kegged my Hoegaarden last night. Cleaned the kegerator and lines. Shed a tear as I dumped the last litre of choc milk stout that I just wasn’t ever going to get through.

 

[JAReeves]

Made 4 gallons of flanders red and added 1/2 gallon of house sour culture made from my homegrown Muscat grapes. Krausen in 4 hours.

A buddy decided he wasn’t going to move with the equipment I gave him last year to start him in homebrewing; he hadn’t used it and didn’t think he was going to. So he returned the equipment and I sent him off to his new town with a 12 pack of homebrew. It’s a bittersweet day.

 

[brewbama]

Fine tuned my fermentation fridge controller to come on and turn off when PV is plus/minus 2*F of SV.

 

[JAReeves]

Bottled the Red Rye yesterday.

 

[histo320]

Cold crashed Surly Furious Clone yesterday, kegged and added gelatin today.

 

[Ollie8000]

Trip to the LHBS. Ready to go on two dark milds, a best bitter and an imperial stout over the next couple of weeks.

 

[HB2 HughBHomeBrew]

Transferred IPA from fermenter to keg so now cold crashing and carbonating.

Completely out of room with 5 corny kegs: 1 lager primary fermenting, Porter, lager and cream ale on tap and the aforementioned IPA. Looks like I need to have a party or “free beer” sign in the front yard

 

[MaxStout]

Finally joined AHA, installed the Brew Guru app. Been sifting through some of the recipes.

 

[seatazzz]

Tasted the Cascade/Mosaic IPA I brewed two weeks ago, and sadly decided to dump it. Yeast issues. Oh well, just have to replace it on Sunday....

read through the last two pages....saw that and thought, you could fit another keg in there if you keep the co2 tank outside. and by god's sake you need a 20#'er....lol

Soaked the oak chips in Knob Creek two days ago. I came home from work last night, ready to make the cold brew, only to find out we are out of coffee. Guess I'm headed to the store as soon as it opens.

 

[thehaze]

I dry hopped my Black IPA fermented with Omega Hornindal with 3.5 oz Citra and 3.5 oz Enigma.
I dry hopped my IPA fermented with Omega Hornindal with 3.5 oz Simcoe and 3.5 oz Azacca.

I rinsed and removed labels from 250 bottles of various sizes ( 330 and 500 ml ).

This came in and 1# is going on the top of the closet for future sours.
